Light, sturdy and well priced

There’s no denying the price bonus on this sturdy little beast. For £18 you get Allen keys from 2mm to 8mm, T25 and T30 Torx keys, four spoke key sizes, a chaintool and a Phillips screwdriver.

The 72mm length makes it easy to get a decent grip to torque things up tight, and it’s robust. At 136g it’s light enough to stick in your pocket too. As with all additional snap-in-place multi-tools, we’re pretty sure it won’t be long until we lose the screwdriver fitting.
