Birzman E-Version 20 multi-tool


SO GOOD
The E-Version has enough tools to fix pretty much any trailside emergency. Even a remarkably sharp knife is included, which sits in a safe position when not in use, along with a bottle opener just in case the only solution is to open a fresh brew while mulling over the repair in hand. There’s a Mavic splined spoke key and the chain tool is comfy and easy to use too.

NO GOOD
The number of tools contributes to the Birzman’s 55mm width, which makes it friendlier on larger hands than small ones. The square edges to the side plates make it slightly uncomfortable when used without gloves too.

PRICE 32$
