dang it! they listened to y’all and now there’s no spoke wrench! i ride hard in philly and there are enough curbs and potholes to throw any wheel out of true if you hit em hard enough. A spoke tool gets me home and i am a real minimalist i would prefer it on this tool rather than having another piece of metal in my pocket. Bring back the spoke wrench and add a 6 allen key somewhere. It would be so easy…

Since its still in production maybe they will rethink the spoke tool part, to be honest how many people true their wheels on the go?

Should be a great tool for us who ride fixed gear on the road.

I’m curious. I want to weigh it against my existing pouch tools to see if it’s a real benefit… fantastic design, looks ultra useful.

its long enough, and looks plenty strong…
but huh… pedal wrench?

The hex sections are 8, 9 and 10mm.

david in fla: The tool IS made of steel and should be plenty strong.

They’re still testing it and this is a prototype so there may be a couple changes in the final version. It’s due out mid to late summer.

What is it made of? those hex sections look like they’d strip out pretty quickly unless this thing is tool steel or something forged/beefy. Can you even use that to tighten brake calipers? I like the idea, but I’d have to use one for a while to see how practical it actually is. Kudos for outside the box thinking though!

spoke tools aren’t that tough to carry around. not sure the utility of squeezing it into an already over-thought design.

but still, i like the idea.

Hello, Trixie! That is so much cooler than the crazily expensive (and much less versatile)EAI “Super Track” tool.
