If only they ever had stock. EDC is always out of stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselnDust Posted May 22, 2019 Share how secure is the multitool to the scewer ? is there a chance of it being knocked off? Nope none at all.the l shaped allen key/screw driver bit locks the tool onto the skewer head and it is retained with friction and a black rubber band (a hoop cut from an old inner tube also serves as a replacement).the body of the tool is the skewer lever so when you need the tool you do loosen the wheel but this hasn;t been an issue for me at all since I'm typically working on the bike at this point so its either standing right side up or upside down on bars and saddle.

Sepia Posted May 22, 2019 Share For my road bike it serves the necessary well. I carry Pedro's tyre levers in my back pocket with a spare tube. bombs hang on a bracket on the frame.Also you don;t have to use the Tulio as a skewer. I sometimes remove it from the skewer and toss it in the back pock as its light and small,Did not know the pivot part could be removed. Must check.I use a reusable cable tie to keep the parts together incase the magnet fails and also use it upside down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MintSauce Posted May 23, 2019 Share I can do alot of Ubering home for R2000 Not necessarily when you're mountain biking. Definitely worth it for me. I'm not going to Uber for a flat tire. The least you need for that is a pump. Being annoyed with small, practically useless pumps as it stands, the quality of this pump and the fact I don't have to carry anything in my shirt pocket, makes this absolute perfection for me.

My Crank bros pump = R650Wolftooth tyre lever with chain storage = R500Multitool for MTB = R550Slug plug = R75 I think the oneUp EDC pump + Tool adds up to good value IF it lasts longer than 3 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say it is, especially if you are buying everything from scratch - I did not so am sitting with a bit of a mix between the Spez SWAT stuff that came with my Stumpy and EDC. My current set-up which works lekker (except for the horribly small Spaz multi-tool) is: - Spez Z cage with SWAT tool attached- Spez chain tool in steerer tube (with 2 quick links attached)- One-up EDC pump (70cc) with a 20gram CO2 cartridge inside - the pump is exceptionally well made and has a big volume so pumps mtb tyres nicely, the head also doubles as a CO2 adapter. I prefer the smaller size pump.- Tube, Ryder Slug Plug, and tyre lever, strapped to the frame using a AMS OS strap. If I had to buy from scratch the ideal set-up for me would be:- One-Up EDC system in steerer tube, with the plug and plier kit attached at the bottom.- One-Up EDC 70cc pump with a 20gr CO2 cartridge inside.- Tube attached to frame with AMS OS strap (or any other strap for that matter). That is in my opinion the neatest and most integrated solution out there with the most complete set of tools you will ever need trail side including a chain breaker, master link tool, and tyre lever. It's expensive, but for that level of build quality and integration I will happily pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danger Dassie Posted May 23, 2019 Share Been really impressed by the quality and design around the Titan stuff at the moment, and most if it at the right price too. https://www.titanracingbikes.com/accessories/Disclaimer; I do by association know the designer and have an affliation with some of the products. But that's based on my belief in it. ChrisF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
