Crank Brothers Multi 19 Multi-tool | $39.76
BikeRadar verdict
"Practical and stylish too, with room for extras like coins."
Crank Brothers is a past master at packaging relatively plain items like pedals into something worthy of a Design Council award, and this tool gets the same treatment sheathed in a plastic and stainless steel flask with the Crank Bros motif on the side.
There’s room inside the flask for coins, spare inner tube patches and the house keys. The Allen keys are 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8mm sizes, and they are short enough not to twist too much when tightening screws.
It has two flat blade and two Phillips sizes, with the smallest being handy for extracting watch size screws or when replacing the batteries on some brands of cycle computer. It also has four spoke keys.
The short handle on the chain splitter makes it hard to deal with 10-speed chains and their tight-fitting pins, though it tackled 9-speed chains with ease.

User review of Crank Brothers Multi 19 Multi-tool
The tools themselves look like they're made out of decent enough material. But I stopped using my 19 after the first use because it's just the wrong shape.
Don't believe me? Try adjusting your front deraileur limit screws!
Plus, there's no removeable allen key to be able to tighten the tool with, so once it's gone floppy you'll have to go home anyway!
