Not a bad-sounding deal for $33, though I have to agree with Eileen–chain tools on a multi-tool can be more trouble than they’re worth.

I brought this along on my first adventure race. Not 3 miles into the mountain bike portion, we had to stop to adjust my clips. And I would have been in a lot of trouble without it. Love this little tool!

hey! I have that multitool, and have used most of it, though I have to admit I used a different chain tool when I had to install a new chain.

I must have an older version, it had a rubberized sleeve that went (I say went because I’ve since lost it) around it to keep it tidy.

Agreed. A good piece of gear. Now if they could only stick a pedal wrench on that thing…
