Yeah I've gotten in the bad habit of texting and talking while riding without a hands free device.

Anyone have any experience with the Lyzene Blox 23 or the Topeak Mini 20 Pro?
or can you recommend any other similar multi-tools? Wanting at least 2-8 hex bits, screwdriver(s), spoke wrench(s), tire lever, and a chain breaker.

I pack and can vouch for my topeak alien III. A bit bulkier but it has everything you'll ever need roadside and then some.

Shimano should start making BB30 road cranks dammit. SL-K cranks are butt ugly and I'm sick that I paid for a BB30 shell that I further paid to not use (the adapter sleeve). Yes I is disappoint w/ DA 9k.

oh you can bet i'll be bragging my ass off once it's done, and the idea is to keep it reasonably priced because us off-the-bell-curve sized people often have to go spendy custom. of course you can always keep an eye on the tiny fix twitter, facebook, website, or tumblr.
Fresh Garbage
BB30 will soon be out as other standards come in. One is BB386 which allows for a threaded outboard BB in some frames(with standard 68mm shell) as well as pressfit in others. Shimano probably likes that.

Today Wabi posted about their new Lightning road frame. Then I thought about buying it instead of a Mr. Pink. Now I'm over it.

Today I bought some NOS 8 speed C-recors DT shifters. Only took a year or so of looking for them.

Nan,
Unless you are doing some serious serious long distance touring there is no reason to have a spoke wrench on your mutli-tool. Nice ones are cheap, and its almost always an at home job.
