Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted May 15, 2017 Share Oh man, a chain breaker would be the cherry on the cake here, but they don't want to take all the business away from S. hahahaI am always hopeful there is someone out there with a breaker with him. Jokes aside, I think Specialized are currently leading in the innovation/intergration sectors but for how long?All these small companies are crawling up out of the wood works with very clever idea's. Keep an eye on OneUp and their new EDC toolkits.Fits in the steerer tube, has a chain break along with other tools and is cheaper.

Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted May 15, 2017 Share saw that, and I like it. A lot. Trailtech cycles have ordered some I believe. Unless the rand goes to a ball of poo it should be under R1000. Don't take my word for it though. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem and gwhite 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew_Smith Posted May 15, 2017 Share The only carbon component I can afford on my bike. Thanks @carbon29er. http://i.imgur.com/glpVzCU.jpg BenReaper and Bollies 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Ruinaard Posted May 15, 2017 Share Ever since Specialized dropped the SWAT bomb on the cycling industry I have been quite jealous of folks able to carry integrated tools inside their bikes. If I rode packless I used to be very limited with the things I carried. I mean a multi tool in the pocket just doesn't work for me because its damn uncomfortable, bouncing round in the rough, I used to just risk it and hope for the best, until today. There are some very awesome products being releases in the cycling world and it seems tool integration is becoming a big thing, like it should. This is the All In Multitool. Ordered from the fantastic okes at allinmultitool.co.za. You can bet there will be a video.... very soonVery nice but R 1200 and no chain breaker?

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted May 15, 2017 Share How would you get them out, normally need an Allen-key to loosed the CAP?Remember the Allen bolt and star nut are onlu there to preload the bearings before tightening the stem, so it's not actually a requirement Steven Knoetze (sk27) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ride Rate Review Posted May 15, 2017 Share Keep an eye on OneUp and their new EDC toolkits.Fits in the steerer tube, has a chain break along with other tools and is cheaper.I have had my eye on the one up site ever since RiRu dropped those spy pics at the opening ews race. I'm sure I'll get one of those for my Mail Order Monday videos. Steven Knoetze (sk27) and Bizkit031 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ride Rate Review Posted May 15, 2017 Share Very nice but R 1200 and no chain breaker?Yeah unfortunately, no chain breaker. Not a deal breaker to me though, the benefit of having just the tools out weighs the missing breaker. I use the tools way more often than a breaker and I don't mind being "that guy" on the trail who ruins your Strava pb's to bum a chain breaker from riders by.

Ride Rate Review Posted May 15, 2017 Share Remember the Allen bolt and star nut are onlu there to preload the bearings before tightening the stem, so it's not actually a requirementUnless your stem/headset loosens, which can happen. I'm really keen to see how this system works. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted May 15, 2017 Share How would you get them out, normally need an Allen-key to loosed the CAP? Puzzles me too but like Myles says, the starnut is not that critical and I think it get replaced by another form of bolt that ties it all up. That's the part that gets released with a normal cassette tool. The EDC tool then gets pulled out using that flip-up rubber thingie.They had videos on MTBR when it was launched at EWS a few weeks back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisF Posted May 15, 2017 Share Unless your stem/headset loosens, which can happen. I'm really keen to see how this system works. there are various YouTube videos of it. Here is one - Here is another - PS - Wonder why this is not available as a two-piece kit .. to fit into the handlebars. PPS - there is a bike hack where similar tools are placed inside the seat post .... off course you must be able to get the seat post out to get to the tools. For now I am happy with a tool bag carrying the spare tubes (I have to carry a 29'' and a 20'' tube) and tools ..... okay, "happy" might not be the best phrase ..... I am considering my options .... I have seen pics of water bottle holders that have "tool-kits" below the holder, would love to see this up close.

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted May 15, 2017 Share So the preload is actually in the mounting nut. Clever. Just be some sort of expanding collet system Steven Knoetze (sk27) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solty Posted May 15, 2017 Share These guys have some sharp ideas going there.I am intrigued by the 47tooth sprocket at the end of the second video. Could be a great upgrade to make all these Shimano 11-42 cassettes really functional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
