Not durable enough
Cons: Bulky, Low Quality
"I have had this tools a while and this weekend I needed to rely on this after breaking a chain but it broke.
In the time I have had it, the two parts never stayed together. Very disappointed so moving to a new brand. :-(
It does have a good range of tools but if they are unusable its beside the point."

RAC for your bike
Pros: Lightweight, Versatile
"A good range of tools which have saved my bacon at the roadside many times. The split form factor is excellent meaning the chain tool can be operated with the Allen tool from the other half. However, the build quality is not perfect -- after a couple of uses the chain tool guides have bent and the locking latches for the two halves have broken."

versatile tool
Pros: Durable, High Quality, Rugged, Versatile
"had one of these for 18 months and it has had a lot of use,
first the downside
I did not use the pouch it came in, instead keeping in a larger topeak saddle bag,
the 4mm hex has a smaller star socket held on the end by magnetic force which it looses over time and it is easy to loose this bit
over time the catch that hold the two parts together is less stiff and they can come apart in your bag, its not really a problem and if kept in the supplied pouch may not happen,
this is a strong tool and the knife has proved very handy
i have bought a new one and passed the old one on to a mate"

Not disappointed
Pros: Durable, Great Value, Attractive, High Quality, Rugged, Lightweight, Versatile
"I bought this on the basis it had the most features, was lighter for the number of features, and had a tyre lever, albeit I have not tried to change a tyre with one tyre lever yet. In use its fine with plenty of torque despite being compact. The only niggle is it is not easy to separate the two halves before use. As other reviewers have pointed out it can be stored in two pieces where space is a premium. You can't have too many multi tools but I have not had the urge to buy another yet."

Nice looker - but not tuff enuff
"Had this a couple of years now, and gotta say its not ageing gracefully! Clip that holds the two halves together snapped off, body twisted, spoke wrench cracked, and allen keys starting to rust.
I guess its fine if you only use it occasionally for emergencies - and it certainly has a good selection of tools - particularly like the metal tyre lever and knife/saw that others don't have.
However, for the price I'd expect it to be a bit more robust, and if you're touring or using it as your main tool at home the plastic body just isn't up to the constant use/twisting forces."

Excellent multi tool
Pros: Attractive, Durable, High Quality, Lightweight
"Great multitool - I got it to take on my LEJOG cycle trip. Has everything you'd ever need, is compact and lightweight. Nifty slide mechanism separates the multi tool into two bits."

All the important tools, could be stronger
Pros: Lightweight, Versatile
"Has all the important tools, chain tool is a bit fiddly but that's not really a problem as it is only for emergencies. Only flaw is that it could be a bit more robust. It's also a bit small for getting good purchase on allen keys, but then this is for shoving in your backpack anyway, not a 'main' tool."
