Reviews of Topeak Alien 2 Multi Tool
Nice but massive
Works but is WIDE/THICK
Alien2
Very handy tool with everything you need for minor repairs.
All Time Favorite Multi Tool
Pros
well constructed
has chain tool
has all the tools needed for minor bike repairs
Cons
none
Other Thoughts
The only thing that you can't do with this multi tool is work on a headset, bottom bracket or cassette, but those take larger tools. The only other tool that you need for minor bike repairs is a set of pliers. Perfect for repairs on the road.
Mini wrenching kit
Pros
I have used this to test multiple wrenching issues on a ride. It's got everything. Splits in half so you can use both sides. Ingenious how each halve supports the other for two tool wrenching issues. Works on my riding teams bikes as well.
Cons
Not sure I would use the tire levers on Carbon rims. They are composite but that's where the two halves mesh/ lock together and that has some metal.
Other Thoughts
Great piece of mind when your 160Km from home with just cloths on your back.
