Crank Brothers makes lots of cool bike parts and accessories, but for our money, the most distinctive and innovative may well be their multi-tools. The slick F15 Multi-Tool is just the lastest example, and it truly has a bold design. Made with hardened steel and a brilliantly machined magnetic case that doubles a tool handle, the F15 packs a bevy of tools, set up in a very usable fashion, and take up very little space in a pocket, saddle bag or hydration pack. It even features an integrated chain tool designed for 8-12 speed drivetrains. Others may point to the bottle opener on the case as the best part. To each their own.

Functionality and effective tool use define the best compact multi-tools. The fact that the slide-off case creates a near palm-size grip means leverage and manageability are both excellent. With the chain tool and 4 spoke wrench sizes supplementing the more standard tools, service on the trail or far away from home is not only feasible, but achievable. Of course you get the common hex and screwdriver tools, as well as a T25 Torx key for a total of fifteen tools at only 164 grams of weight. Did we mention it looks sweet as well? Style points won't matter much on the trail with a broken chain, but an effective tool surely will. Backed by Crank Brothers 5 year warranty, you can rely on the F15 Multi-Tool on the road, trail or across the barren flatlands of your favorite gravel epic.
