M-Part 13 Function multi-tool


SO GOOD
The M-Part 13 Function is one of the most compact tools we’ve come across and weighs just 113g. Despite this it has a solid feel that meant we weren’t worried about giving it a bit of rough treatment.

Madison have included a nicely integrated Shimano crank cap tool, which could prove a ride saver on the trail. Alongside that, there are Allen keys from 2mm to 8mm, a Torx T25 key, two screwdrivers and a chain tool.

NO GOOD
The tools are the shortest on test, making some tricky spots on the bike almost impossible to access. There are no spoke keys included. AxiomTuck

Merida Big Seven 100

We've rolled up to our local woods, with a meandering blue trail, some natural wooded tracks and a bit of fire road chucked into the mix to see how the Big Seven 100 tackles trails that entry-level riders are likely to cut their teeth on.
