Anyone used this chain tool? and if so what did you think?. I'm after getting a chain tool to keep with me when out riding and i was pondering on this one, i've had the Park compact chain tool and didn't like it, nothing really to hold on to and the only other option for out riding would be Topeak Super Chain Breaker Tool or the Pro Chain Tool.

    I've got the Topeak tool. I carry it whenever I'm out, it weighs next to nothing, holds two Shimano pins (only useful if you're running a Shimano chain) and comes with a nifty bit of wire that holds the chain together when you're inserting the pins (which avoids the need for three hands).

    I also use it as my workshop chain tool as it is easy to use desptie it's size. CRC are doing them for a tenner at the moment.
    It's easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission.

    I've bought a new bike....ouch - result
    Can I buy a new bike?...No - no result
