I saw a new DK multi tool on a website today and it made me think of getting one. I know there are a few of them around, has anyone used one/ can recomend one?
Here is DKs new one

Only on my MTB a Topeak one :)
Actually I have only ever carried it, never had to use it :-\
-
I have a little MotionPro multitool that is part of my trials/trail motorbike kit. It's saved me a few times. That DK tool looks pretty cool though :daumenhoch:
-
Me and JT71 have been looking into getting one of the DK ones but they aint out yet. The only problem I can see is that my profile cranks have imperial allen key bolts in them, and I like to have a chain tool and some extra links. Other that that its got everything Id need (infact I wouldnt even need the 19mm socket)
-
Looks cool, where's the toothpick and the compass :LolLolLolLol:
Alex you could always knock the metric allen head out and replace it. Have known Snap-on to replace a few :daumenhoch:
-
It's a good start, you'll never get everything in one tool.. there's probably enough space to shoehorn in an imperial allen key socket, or maybe a couple of regular ones suitably cut down?

Good idea, but Id need the metric one for my stem
Its never easy is it :tickedoff:
-
if you lose the socket you don't need you might squeeze an imperial 3/8 drive allen key in for your cranks.
December they#ll be out here...got some emails out to some usa shops see if they have them yet.

good old empire bmx. got mine on order (and one more in case someone wants one, mr leech has dib dobs)

I've stripped and rebuilt a whole MTB with just a Topeak multitool :daumenhoch:

taken by mr leech.
www.empirebmx.com in the DK section.
they have them in stock ready to ship.
how's it going Paul? ready for dropping in those crete ramps at Alan Higgs yet?
I had an off with no pads on in Banbury yesterday, some skin and blood loss but I gained some grit, so it's not all bad.
Pickle: you are McGuyver and the A-Team rolled into one. :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol:

Went to the bowl in the park in Holbrooks yesterday. Even I drop in there and the local kids have built a mud landing ramp outside the bowl. So you launch out of the bowl over the crete kerb and onto the mud ramp which sits a couple of feet off the floor. It's not huge air or anything but it is fun!
Felt right at home :) all this ramp park stuff is foreign to me for now but give me something to launch off and I'm back in my day!
Forgot how much I hate cleaning mud of bikes ::)
Getting more settled and natural every time I ride now. Just a case of blowing away 20+ years of not riding. I am positively embarassed by my head plant drop in at Higs. Sort that tomorrow.
Bring your new found grit with you tomorrow mate if the weathers good :daumenhoch:
-

had a day off riding yesterday so will get down spiceball this lunchtime.
