Any tool is better than no tool. Find a crappy chain and use it before you go out in the trail. Only by doing will you find out if it works for you. Somehow, I'm sure it will. Also try all the other gizmos on that multi tool before you actually have to use it.

Could I ask your advice about a "multi" tool. I mountain bike and weight is everything. I bought a lezyne crv 12. Seems quite sturdy but I have not had to break a chain yet. Any opinion?

Thanks for the comment Bob. Most LBS (Local Bike Shop) carry Park tools. Big Oak, it is true that the Park is a dream to operate compared to the other one. But the cheapo still manages to get the job done, just not as well.

I've got a cheapo chain tool that seems to work well, except the stem that screws into the main body of the chain tool keeps falling out. It's more frustrating than anything. I like the integrated handle on the Park chain tool.

Glad to see you've got back to blogging more regularly!

Thanks for the chain tool article. Very instructive. I'm just getting into bike maintenance so posts like that are really helpful.

Now, it's my understanding that regular Joes can't buy direct from Park. So I'm assuming I oughta go thru my LBS unless you've got any other suggestions.

Oh yeah, I also read all your bike-building exploits. Fascinating. I'd love to learn more.

Thanks for a great blog!
