A lot of tools in a tiny package
I've been riding with a tube and levers strapped to my bike, and a pump, multitool, and tire plugs in my hip pack for many years. But I take a lot of quick, local rides and want to have the necessities without needing the pack so went on the search for some new tools. I thought about the oneup solutions, but when I saw the TS18 it looked to cover all my bases in a well thought out package. The mount is made of plastic but seems to be of decent quality and has a couple wide mounting holes so you can slide it forward or back a bit to find the ideal mounting location. The tire lever is nice and sturdy and reminds me of my favorite Pedros levers. The integrated tire plug tool looks nice but I haven't used it yet, could be a little awkward to use since the grip area is so small but time will tell. I was able to fit my existing Park Tool hand pump in the pump/co2 side with the shim in place, and I assume many other hand pumps will fit if you prefer them to co2. The multitool itself is impressively compact, but will take a bit of getting used to. I've found that pushing the tools in on one side makes it easier to pull out the tools on the other side, but the 8mm bit can be hard to get out from the magnet. I do wish the tools were labeled to make them easier to distinguish but that's a minor gripe. There are also spots on each side of the tool to hold quick link pieces with the magnet, which is very sleek. All in all I am very pleased with the quality of the package and the tiny volume of space that it takes up. It allows me to go on rides without a hip pack which was my goal so mission accomplished. I knocked off one star because I feel like the MSRP is a bit steep and would consider it a much better buy at around $70-80. Side note: I mounted the TS18 with bolts on the top tube of my YT Jeffsy. The Crankbrothers website says it's best to mount with bottle cage mounts down by your feet but I haven't really had issues with my knees hitting the tool tube or my pump. But your mileage could vary.
