Crank Brothers M10 Special Edition multi-tool review

The Crank Brothers M10 Special Edition multi-tool offers a lesson in functionality by including the 10 most commonly used tools to cover most eventualities out on the road. All of the tools are of a sufficient length to comfortably tackle the job of loosening or tightening stubborn bolts and are made of 6150 high-tensile steel.

The retaining body is made up of two slim yet comfortable knurled alloy rods. The M10 comes complete with 2-8mm Allen key sizes, including a 2.5mm, plus Phillips and flathead screwdrivers and a Torx T25 for disc rotors, all of which fitted well, while the slimmer size of the tool allowed good access in restricted areas.

The only issue with choosing the M10 as your only multi-tool is the lack of a chain tool;  for this you will need to look at the M10’s bigger brother, the M17. This apart, the M10 is a great little tool to use at home or on the go.
