Lezyne SV 10 Multi Tool
| Add this item to your wishlist | ||||||
Multitools are one of those items that should be packed away in your saddle bag or backpack when out for a ride, they can often save you from a long walk home or an emergency phone call. For such a tiny item it is often amazing how much they can actually do, rejoining a broken chain, adjusting a rubbing brake or a slipped cable for example. You can pretty much service a complete bike with some of the ones we have listed.
Lezyne USA has been distributing cycling products worldwide since the end of 2007. They specialise in producing quality hand pumps, multi tools, tyre repair kits and hydration packs. Although new on the scene their mission statement is to create accessories that are exquisitely designed, intelligently engineered and functionally complete.
Lezyne are a company that have the ability to make a seemingly mundane product such as a pump or multi tool into an object of desire. They mix quality materials with well thought out design and an attention to detail, which result in objects that demand attention. This is certainly true of their SV10 multi tool, which packs, as you may have guessed, ten tools into a light (only 101 g), compact and attractive package.
The list of tools included are: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8mm Allen keys, T25 and T30 Torx, a Philips headed screwdriver bit and a chain tool. The tool is contained in a stretch leatherette sleeve which protects it from the elements, and your jersey pocket from it.
The build quality is excellent, with details that make it a pleasure to use, such as the way the end of each of the tools is machined and centre drilled where it pivots, rather than the cheaper option of just bending the end of the bit around the pivot. This not only allows the SV10 to be slimmer, but each bit pivots out smoothly and has full 360 degree rotation.
The bits are all forged and then CNC'd to give a smooth accurate finish; the chain tool deserves special mention, it is incredibly smooth in operation, and as easy to use as a stand alone chain tool, and when not in use, folds into the body of the tool unobtrusively.
The SV10 is not just good looking though; it is more than tough enough for any roadside repairs I encountered, and even had enough strength and leverage available to remove my SPD-SL pedals.
The polished aluminium side plates carry the Lezyne logo etched into the polished metal, as does the chain tool, and the whole tool has a polished finish that gives it the look and feel of a quality product, which this ultimately is.
The range of tools included covers all the usual emergency repairs in a lightweight package making it easy to carry, with a look, feel and finish that is only bettered by its practicality and effectiveness.
Lezyne multi-tools are unlike any other we've ever come across before. Smoothly machined and smartly engineered not only to appear more aesthetically pleasing but also to perform better than the rivals, Lezyne's products are a breath of fresh air.
The newly released SV10, as its name implies, offers 10 tools inside its CNC-machined 7075 aluminium side plates, and its flat and low size weighs a scant 101g. Lezyne's forged and CNC-cut stainless steel bits use a centre pivot which ensures the sides of the tool are incredibly smooth with no excess material.
There's a useful array of tools. A chain breaker is engraved with the company logo and a timed thread ensures it always rests in the correct position following use. There's 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and even an 8mm Allen key, which will get you sorted on any modern bicycle, plus a Philips-head screwdriver and T25 and T30 Torx bits.
The SV10 might cost a little more than other similar tools, but we're willing to bet none offer quite the same attention to design - attention that results in an especially compact, slim, refined and lightweight design that wouldn't look out of place if left lying around on a coffee table in some contemporary building out of Grand Designs.
But let's not forget we're talking about a multi-tool here, not a design object, and that it should be measured on its performance in those instances when you're far from home and only a multi-tool can save you. We've been carrying the SV10 with us for a couple of months now just dying for a mechanical [You complain about them all the time - ed.] to force us to have to slip the tool out of its logo-ed Leatherette case [Don't you mean 'pouch'? - ed.]. And when that moment happened, we were certainly glad to have such a high quality tool at the ready. The tools are all of a high quality and there's enough leverage available for most roadside repairs to be rapidly dealt with.
Not only more stylish than all the rest, but also functionally much better. A joy to use.
