thumbs up on crank bros multi-tool 19

i just wanted to say the crank bros multi-tool 19 is a pretty solid tool. i've had others including a park tool and an el cheapo plasticky thing that were not as well designed.

in addition to being useful on the road, its also become the go-to tool in the garage when i need that little extra torque to loosen or tighten an allen bolt. better leverage than a screwdriver. i actually had to learn to take it easy when i first got it cuz i wasn't used to the extra torque and would overtighten stuff.

i think i bought it for around $20 when REI was having a sale a few months ago.

Best tool ever!!! The chain tool is awesome and you can even use it as leverage on tires that don't want to fit on the rim.

I got mine at Nashbar for 15.96 minus 20% discount and plus shipping. I used it a few times and I like it especially the stylish and functional chromed steel case. That was about a year ago.

that looks pretty useful. Bought the Topeak Hexus 16 tool, it has served it's purpose well. I use it for almost everything, and the park 4 way
