June 29, 2017 - Comment
There are 17 features in one lightweight tool: 8/9/10 speed compatible chain tool; 0, 1 ,2, 3 spoke wrenches; 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 hex wrenches; Philips and flat screwdrivers; 8mm and 10 mm open wrenches; t-25 torx. Crank Brothers Multi-17 Tool features both a chain tool and a disc-brake-rotor-friendly Torx T-25 wrench alongside the usual package. The Crank Brothers Multi 17 Tool has mountain bikers first in mind. Nothing besides a flat or a broken bone will stop your ride as quickly as a busted chain, and if you ride hard you’re bound to snap a link sometime. The Multi 17 might not be the absolute lightest tool or smallest on the market, but the extra grams are well worth it because if you don’t have the right tool when the chips are down, you’re dead weight anyway. This tool features four spoke wrench sizes, seven hex wrench sizes, an 8mm and 10mm open wrench, and both a Philips and flathead screwdriver. Specs: Weight: 168 grams; Length – 3.5 inches; Frame – 6061-T6 aluminum; Tools – 6051 high tensile steel.

I fixed brake issues, derailleur failures, and even another cyclists loosening crank arm with this tool. I even trued a wobbly front wheel…
Great EXCEPT for Chain Breaker The chain breaker failed me on a ride when my chain broke at the master link. Didn’t have a spare master link, so chain tool was my only repair option. Unfortunately, couldn’t break the chain. Ended up hitching home.
Great asset to my bike kit I debated for DAYS on what kind of tool set I should get for minor bicycle repairs and adjustments. I wanted something that was both small enough to carry… yet sturdy enough to count on when needed. The Crank Brothers 17-Function multi-tool certainly fit the bill. This thing is solid; that’s the first thing I noticed when I picked it up. The heavy-duty rubber holder keeps all the tools compressed together in one nice, neat package. Nothing rattles and there aren’t any sharp ends that can…
