Comments about Crank Brothers Multi-10 Tool:
This is a real minimalist tool that is just short of an absolute minimum of what you need for a traveling tool kit. If the Torx driver were replaced with a spoke nipple wrench I'd rate it a perfect 5 stars. As is, I'd really rate this as a 4.9 star product as what is included is essential and works great. The tool fits solidly in your hand and has plenty of torque for stubborn bolts.

Comments about Crank Brothers Multi-10 Tool:
After a lot of research of just about every tool, I chose this one because it keeps it simple. My bike has all 7 hex bolts along with Phillips and flathead. Torx is the only one I don't need. The handle fits well and it isn't wide like so many 15+ multi-tools so it's less of an issue in tight spots. I like the extra length of the wrenches. The stubby ones with other multi-tools can be frustrating.
Another reviewer suggested a spoke wrench which would be nice but I prefer to carry a separate spoke wrench because stripping spoke nipples is not a good thing because there is usually a darn good reason why you need to use it. I also carry a separate chain tool because the 10 and 11 speed chains really need a good chain tool. It's more weight than one of the larger multi-tools but having a real spoke wrench and chain tool is worth it.
My one complaint is the weight isn't even close for mine. 153 grams versus the advertised 124 grams. That's 25% heavier. I took the Torx wrench out and it was still 142 grams so I can't see any real way that most of them could be close to 124 grams. However this is generally par for the course with bike manufacturers. Most of them might as well not put any weights.
