SKS Tom 18 multi-tool


SO GOOD
The Tom 18 doesn’t take up a lot of room in your pocket or pack but has a whole load of tools crammed into its compact 70x50mm body. It sits comfortably in your hand when in use and gives easily enough leverage for a trailside tighten. The Allen keys are good quality, and the chain tool folds flat to sit flush when not in use and is easy to use too.

NO GOOD
The plastic compartment for a chain joining pin is largely redundant in this age of quick links. We can’t help but think SKS would be better off including another, more useful tool that would make better use of the space.

PRICE 35$
