I want this tool!



Sure, it's not really necessary at a shop like BikeRoWave, where you'd already have a chain whip for cog removal, a lockring wrench, and 10mm and 15mm wrenches, separately.   But this is perfect for fixed gear commuters and track riders, as a single tool for carrying in your bag.   

The GORGEOUS polished steel makes it simply ridiculous.   I think it even comes with it's own display mount!

That's not going to give you very much torque.

might not have much torque, but the only 10mm bolts on track bikes i can think of are chain tensioners, which given the clearance around the bit, is probably all it would be good for.

Would you trade your cog remover for a bottle cap remover?

Surly's Jethro Tule pocket tool is crafted from stainless-steel, then polished to a high luster. It combines an offset box wrench on one end with a leverage-enhanced bottle opener on the other.

The double-sided 15mm box wrench works with most bolt-off hubs on the market. It fits quite nicely inside recessed dropouts, including those found on our 1x1, Karate Monkey, and Steamroller frames. Quit carting around the Vice-grips; our smooth, spoon-shaped handle provides ergonomic pleasure for your palm under the most rigorous wheel-removing operations, at a fraction of the weight and bulk. And, it snaps open the fizzy reliably before, during, and after the ride. The Jethro Tule hangs nicely on a key chain and is light enough to carry comfortably anywhere. Being 'Thick as a Brick', it is built to last and to resist bouncing out of your pocket during a rough single-track ride, or cross-town jaunt.
