The Fix it Sticks Replaceable Edition will be reviewed in this article, just as the Tire Levers that were released by Brian Davis and his team around December 2016. The tire levers are specifically designed for Fix it Sticks Replaceable Edition and can be placed on the end of Fix it Sticks instead of a 1/4″ bit.
I will compare the replaceables with the Fix It Sticks T-Way wrench and the Fix It Sticks Tire Levers with my Tacx Mini Tyre levers T4885.

The PB Swiss BikeTool is a clever designed multi-tool for on the go, and I will compare it with my Lezyne V10 multi tool. The PB Swiss Tools 470.M Adapter is part of this 1/4″ bit based BikeTool. The adapter is 1/4″ bit holder that can be used in combination with a 5 mm. hex/allen key.
Furthermore I will share my thoughts on why every home mechanic should have the PB 470.M Adapter and a set of PB Swiss Tools allen keys.

The Tube Spool from Specialized is a helpful accessory for cyclist who don’t like a saddle bag or for cyclist who keep their “rain-bag” organized.
The Specialized Tube Spool is basically a clever holder for a 16 grams CO2 cartridge, a CO2 valve head, a Specialized SWAT tire lever and a spare road inner tube with a valve length of up to 80mm.

The Ergon TP1 Cleat Tool for Speedplay, Shimano SPD-SL, Look Keo and Crank Brothers pedals is the perfect tool to improve your cycling ergonomics by adjusting the cleats with high accuracy in a few simple steps.
I’m riding Speedplay Zero Stainless pedals (since 2003) and bought me a pair of Sidi Wire Carbon Vernice shoes with a Speedplay specific sole. I will use the Ergon TP1 Cleat Tool to install a pair of new cleats and improve the ergonomics on my road bike.

In this article I will share my thoughts on the Cocoon Grid-It Organizer that I use to organize important bike tools that I store in a set of BERA CLIC+ toolboxes It was the Velonews article “A look inside pro mechanics’ toolboxes” that pointed me to the Cocoon Grid-It Organizer following the footsteps of Joe Devera, mechanic of the Cannondale-Cyclocrossworld.com team.
