Lezyne Micro Caddy, what multi tool?

clayboy

Hello all,

I am in need of a new multi tool, but would like it to fit in the tool pocket on my Lezyne Micro Caddy size small.

Ideally I would like the tool to have a chain link remover.

Any recommendations? What tools have you managed to fit in the pocket?

Thank you, Nick.

The pedros one which was at Sportspursuit:

all it doesn't have is a phillips screwdriver. Light and strong. I had a parks one and it was crap

I have the same bag and, for a while, used of these http://www.specialized.com/gb/gb/ftr/ba ... mt-pro-mtb The road version omits the chain tool for some reason (probably to save a tiny bit of weight). The chain tool is bordering on being useless though. I can imagine on a freezing cold, rainy day it would be murder on the hands.
I just carry a couple of allen keys (4&5mm) in the pocket meant for C02 and a park CT-5 mini chain brute in the multi tool pocket

As an alternative, I can piggy-back this:

With this:

in the microcaddy tool pocket.

I love the Hexus, but I would never get mine in my micro caddy. I have this in mine: http://www.evanscycles.com/products/spe ... l-ec027080 the Topeak Mini6 looks similar, so would be a good bet.

I also have one of these http://www.evanscycles.com/products/top ... l-ec005506 but dont carry it in the caddy. In fact I dont think I have ever taken it out, but it seems like a good alternative!

I use a broken-down Hexus II (http://www.evanscycles.com/products/top ... l-ec023024) which has an excellent chain tool which I've used many times (never on the road).

I unscrewed the tool body and took out the few hex keys etc I will ever need, including the chain tool. I have them wrapped in a plastic bag. Far less space, less weight and the tools are easier to use when separated. Push one tool through the "eye" of another to get leverage. For me it's a perfect solution to be fully tooled-up on a long ride without space or weight penalties - I think the lot weighs less than 70g from memory.
