Product name: Bibury Multitool (Like Leatherman Wave)
Price paid: €45
Score (out of 10): 10
Review: There's obviously hundreds of normal bike multi tools out there. Some are basic, some are ingenious in the features they offer.
I wanted something with pliers to keep in a bag on rides, but which would still give me access to hex keys and torx.
I was going to buy another leatherman wave. This uses it's own slimline bits which actually work really well, or you can buy an adapter so you can use full size screw driver bits.
When I was looking I found the Bibury multitool. They do lots of different ones and like many of these things, many are sold under different brand names also. This one is VERY similar to a leatherman wave except it uses a full size bit driver. One other advantage is it's about 1/3 the price, so you won't cry as much when you lose it on the trails and the next person gets to enjoy your toy.
Pretty much everything is the same. The thumb pull for the saw is slightly harder to reach on the Bibury.
The Bibury is slightly deeper to accomodate the full size bit driver. The can/bottle opener also moves over to the other side.
The Bit Drives :
The Leatherman bit sets. Zim's tip of the day, you can actually use these as tyre levers if you get caught short. The back side at the top is even shaped like a tyre lever. (not pictured).
Couldn't find this on Amazon UK, I suspect it's under a different name. Searching for the ASIN number doesn't find it as you normally do if you're trying to find the same product on different amazons.
In France :
Or Germany, where it's only €35 at the moment.
In the states I believe you can buy it from Walmart, as the Ozark Trail Multiforce.
