Comments about Crank Brothers Multi-17 Tool:

I had to use the chain breaker today on my 8-speed chain and was able to get the broken link out and replaced with a Powerlink, then back on the bike in 3 minutes.

Allen wrenches work in a pinch for adjusting issues while on a ride away from your garage or a bike shop. Like a reviewer said about the Multi-19 is that with it and any other multi-tool is that things might get tight trying to fit into certain places, but the pros overweight the con here.

If you're debating between this and the Multi-19, the only difference is that the 19 comes with an extra set of Phillips and flathead screwdrivers and a chain breaker that compatible up to 10-speed. If you don't need those, then get the 17 and save a few dollars for other components.

Comments about Crank Brothers Multi-17 Tool:

I am a bike commuter and mountain biker and I have used every single tool on this unit. The chain breaker is the best mobile one I have tried, and I love its shape when I stow it in my hydration pack.
I have stopped to help several other cyclists with it, and they have all asked me where I got it and said they will be getting their own.

Comments about Crank Brothers Multi-17 Tool:

The only problem is that the individual tools tend to move/bend when using them, making some adjustments tricky at times. I like the fact though that you can have a tool out at a 90 degree angle and really get great leverage when you need to really tighten down that bolt.

Nice set of tools though I wonder if a normal sized hex wrenches would be easier to use sometimes.

Comments about Crank Brothers Multi-17 Tool:

I never thought i would have to use all the features of this tool. I had simply wanted a good set of allen wrenches and not all the trimmings. I've recently become an avid mountain biker and have put my poor bike (and components) through their paces. I found that having the chain link tool on this saved me long walks home a couple of times after mud, sand, and some hard shifting snapped my chain. I was able to make the repair and get back up and running again in no time. The other tools worked as expected, good selection of different wrenches and tools allow you to make all the adjustments you need while on the road, trail, whatever. It's solidly built and big enough to give you decent leverage for those stubborn fasteners, but it can be hard to maneuver at times. It's worth it to get this one with the chain tool, you'll hope to never have to use it, but you'll be happy to have it when you do.

Comments about Crank Brothers Multi-17 Tool:

This tool is a must have for all bikers. It has all the necessary tools for quick fix on the trail. It is lightweight and rugged. Only thing missing is a bottle opener : ) It comes with a rubber band around the tool, it helps grip a lot better. I carry with me everytime I ride.

Comments about Crank Brothers Multi-17 Tool:

Great tool overall. It can, however, be difficult to get enough torque with the chain tool. I frequently grab this when working on my bike at home rather then dig through the tool box.
