🔧 Crankbrothers F15, F10 Plus, and F10 Multi-Tool - Optimized Chain Tool with Torx and Hex Compatibility for Bicycles Review

I can't put this thing down. Hands down the coolest bike tool out there. The multi-tool engages with a pleasant click. The multi-tool fits in the case no matter how you use it first. A chain wrench/spoke wrench fits pretty much the same way. Drivers and buttons are shiny and chrome-plated. This tool is cool and functional. The case keeps everything in place and gives you extra leverage and grip when using tools. Good small size and weight. Perfect for my hiking backpack.

A few MTB-related YouTubers with first and last names "Bike Hacks" have recommended this tool and it's well worth the money. It's very well made with quality components and is just the right weight to feel premium without being overly heavy. The tools are difficult to push out at first, but I suspect that over time they will become easier to move. The best thing about this multi tool that sets it apart from others is the case that can be used for the lever and what is actually a very good chain

I like this setup. A nifty little box that fits in a bag or pocket, just like soda bottles. Has almost all the tools you need including chain and spoke tools. Everything is neatly housed in an aluminum case held in place by magnets. Let's see how long they stay there no matter what glue they choose. But so far they are working perfectly. The only issue I had was that some of the wrenches on some of the hardware heads on my custom bikes seem a bit loose. One size smaller doesn't fit at all, and…

The craftsmanship and quality of this multi tool is amazing until you get to the chain tool. This is a very brittle piece of aluminum that broke when the chain pin was driven in. This was my first time using this tool and it left me stranded. with a broken chain. I didn't try too hard, the pin was straight and just broke. I consider this a high end product given the price, so I would expect every part to have the same reliability. There's not much point in going with a lighter material to keep…

At a reduced price this is a good tool but definitely not at full retail price. Don't buy it if you need it for a chain tool, although it works great for breaking the chain if you don't have the master link and need to reconnect it. The chain link will be very stiff as the tool does not come with a second notch in the chain breaker that is used to loosen the link so it can rotate freely. For $2 more I would go with a Topeak multi-tool or a Blackburn multi-tool. In fact, Blackburn has a place in

Overall this is a very good bike tool. It's a little tricky to put the pieces in place, but I suspect it will get better with time. It feels good in your hand and you can add extra torque to your wrenches by pulling all the tools out from the opposite side to create a larger grip area. I did manage to snap a bolt on my bike with one of the allen wrenches by over-tightening it, but that's not the tool's fault, and if anything says anything about the amount of torque you can achieve with it. I…

The F-15 comes with everything I need on the track and before I ride during my inspection. All allen keys, even 8mm, standard flat and Phillips plus Torx 25, all chrome plated. The metal holder doubles as a handle that allows you to add leverage for the more stubborn screws, and it does this triple duty. At the other end there is a detachable chain cutter, in the lower part of which there are built-in wedges for the spokes (0,1,2,3). Topping it all off is a built-in bottle opener, so I think…

Nice and compact. Maybe because of the compactness. It didn't work in two places when I needed it most. 1. Adjusting the derailleur during a group ride. Phillips is not the right size. (Almost not enough for Shimano 105 adjustment screws). The bits are very short and it is not possible to manipulate the angle enough to push the flat body enough to rotate and hold the tool in the screw. 2. Didn't work when you had to climb into the 105 brifter to pin it down while riding, just too short to reach
