It also is great to ride lite when you only 5 minutes from the nearest coffee shop Wink and you can wait for someone to pick you up while sipping a cup of coffee after a break down. Hell rather carry a tool box then have to hike 30km over a mountain to the nearest main road wich is still another 30km from the nearest town.

Me too' date=' and I suppose that I could have just said that, but that tool is worth another look ;o)[/quote']

 

 

I have the Multi 17 and i love it. Im almost happy when something breaks so i can pull it out and show people! And it doesn't have the tool flask so i have no need to worry about it breaking!
