Crank BrosMulti-17 Tool(Return to Product Page)

If you only want to have a single tool in your bag or jersey pocket, this should be it. Solid construction and with a layout that allows you to really torque allens, screws, etc. and not feel like you're going to break the tool. The rubber belt that surrounds it to help keep the tools from popping open is a bit tough to deal with, but otherwise it's a fantastic tool and I highly recommend it. If I'm in my workshop tinkering on my bikes I'll often find myself pulling this out of one of my bike's seat bags to do minor adjustments, even though I have a full set of allen wrenches nearby.

I keep this tool in my bag all the time, its great! Compact, lightweight, and has all the tools needed for a road side repair. Ive fixed broken chains, used it to true a wheel so I could get home after a spoke broke, and fixed a slipping seat post. I felt a lot safer venturing a long ways from cell phone service after I got this tool.

I think this tool is unparalleled by its competitors. For it's impressive thoroughness, it's unbelievably compact and minimally modular. It's got an 8mm hex for your pedal spindle a variety of spoke wrenches one of which makes an excellent valve tool and need I say more? an uncompromising chain tool! There's very little that could go mechanically wrong on a ride that this guy is unprepared for. If you have a friend that also hasn't got one yet... buy two!

11 miles from the trail head my chain broke. Pulled out my palm sized CB 17, fixed the chain. Don't leave pavement without it.

I have an older one of these I use on my mountain bike. Has everything I need in a pinch. Bought another one for the road bike that I use on long tours. Nice to have a solid set of tools and a chain break just in case. My old one started to come loose over time but just tightened up the hex bolts on the side and good as new.

You can get a good grip on the tool. which makes it easy and comfortable to use. This also makes it difficult to use it tight spaces. To wide to allow me to make adjustments to my 29er disc brake piston through the spokes. great all around tool, will have years of use.

I dont get on the bike without it. Have cranked on this tool for a couple of years now, and none of the edges are stripping.

You could tune shopping carts and rebuild a gocart with this thing!

A little heavy but this has basically all you need for minor adjustments and roadside saves. Cool to have a chain breaker with you but I've never used one in the field. Pick one up.

A nice group of tools, could also have a smaller size philups screw driver.

I cannot champion the cause of carrying a multitool enough and there have been enough times where I was able to ride out our help a riding partner ride out because I was carrying one. What is nice about this version, it has a Torx wrench for disk brakes, and no protruding parts that mean you can still drink from an unpunctured Camalbak while you are trying to figure out what you just broke going over your handlebars...

I purchased this multi-tool for my husband who commutes by bike every day. He has been using it regularly and is very happy with it overall. It's very sturdy and seems like it will last forever.

A most have.

I have had to make brake adjustments while on tour with this cool little tool and it works great although you can adjust more than brakes if needed. Well built, slim compact design makes it easy to carry and store. If only it had a knife and spoon attached...

I have one of these in my bike bag for each bike so I can't forget it, relatively low weight and very useful, if you are out in the boonies and something happens this tool can be the difference between a long walk and getting home on your bike.

Just what I was looking for. Well made and a cyclists friend indeed.

I got this multi-tool to prepare myself for the worst. It has nearly everything you could need (aside from a tire lever). I was so glad I was carrying it when my wheel came out of true on a ride and I was able to use the spoke wrench (conveniently located within the chain breaking tool) to get my wheel true enough to ride to a bike shop! Highly Recommended!
