Wolf Tooth has developed a cycling multi-tool that is capable of functioning as an axle lever for your bike's rear wheel, giving it a strong differentiating factor in the increasingly saturated cycling multi-tool market.
The 'Axle Handle Multi-Tool' works by requiring users to go about threading a receiver nut onto the axle, with the axle then turned and secured into the dropouts. When multi-tool functionality is called for, users can simply slip the multitool right out, allowing them access to a 5-mm hex end, varied hex tools, a flat head #3 and a Phillips #2 screwdriver among other essential tools.
Incredibly, this versatile cycling multi-tool weighs in at only 28 grams, making it decidedly diminutive and compact, not to mention a value purchase at only $29.95.
