multi tool

Topeak mini 6. And mind a chain tool!

EBay for JIS screwdriver bits. For example http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152466193281

grrrrr

I did that ktache, ordered a JIS screwdriver from Japan. Odd thing is that it doesn't seem to fit derailleur screws any better than a philips .

very +1 on the park CT-5, a portable workshop quality tool.  And I have a very retro early 90s Cool-Tool, and a practical size swiss army knife.

Would anyone know if I can buy one of those 8mm hex thay fits on a 6mm hex thingies?  Many tools have them, and they look incredibly loose-able, but I could not find them being sold seperatly.

And still looking for a JIS driver in a multitool.  Finally ordered my workshop one and it is hopefully wending it's way from Japan.  My bikes have no crossheads, but many JISs.  I of course realise that the JIS is no longer the standard, but neither is Mr allen or phillips, name changes head seeminingly stays the same.

I have tons of multi-tools - someone always seems to get me one for Christmas. My favourite is the Lezyne V10. I also have a soft spot for the Topeak mini 6; it's just so tiny!

If you're going for a Topeak, I would steer away from the ones that split in two - they're really bulky when the two halves are mated together.

Topeak Rocket​ Ratchet here - not a traditional multitool but I find it excellent.

I'm still rocking a Topeak Power 21 from around 1997...and a Lezyne V5

Mini 9 would be a good choice.

I usually carry a Park CT-5 chain tool, spare quicklink and Lezyne SV5 (3, 4, 5 & 6mm hex, Phillips).

I have the Tom 18 from SKS...  7 riders on the Omloop sportive needed to borrow it to stop rattles....  with multi tools... personal choice and yer pays yer money...

There are indeed, I carry the Mini-9 .

Lots of Topeak fans, apparently

I had an Ashima RiteToolz two-piece multi-tool too. The thing has two halves that slide into each other for storage. One half contains all the hex keys and screwdrivers, while the other is primarily a chain tool, but doubles as a tire lever and comes with a flat steel piece you can use as a spoke wrench or box wrench. The design has been rebadged by others; I know PRO have a version of it.

It's decent, but the hex key/screwdriver side has a habit of loosening its pivots over time from vibration in my saddle bag. The Topeak Hexus II I have is ultimately better and more solid, even though it's a little bulkier overall. So nice, I bought it twice (one for my other bike).

I use topeak alien 2. Does everything, including chain and 6 bolt rotors.

Best one I've had is from Topeak also, really good quality but inexpensive.  Think it's the Mini 20.

Topeak Hexus II. Pretty much does everything, even tighten the T25 bolts on a six-bolt disc brake rotor. It can even let you do away with tire levers. Can't peen an 11-speed Campagnolo chain pin, though. Also the 8 mm hex key is a removable bit that fits over the 5 mm, so that's potentially easily lost.

Crankbrothers' M17 and M19 are well-reviewed, too.
