Topeak tire levers are crap.

In my mountain bike saddle bag i carry a Topeak Hexus Multi tool. Yesterday was the first time i tried to use the tire levers that are part of this tool. Holy Cow!!!!!!!!!!!! I broke the levers trying to get the tire off. What POS tool!!!

Maybe I could understand if these were belted tires, but they're just run of the mill Bontragers.

As a qualifier, i own 4 bikes and have changed flats dozens if not hundreds of times over the past 30 years. Never had a tire lever problem before. this was a first. If you own Topeak tire levers as part of a multi tool, carry another set. You're gonna need them!!!!!
