Dos en uno. Sirve para destalonar y talonar las cubiertas y también para abrir y cerrar los eslabones de la cadena. Ocupa y pesa poco, pudiéndose llevar en la bolsa de la bicicleta. Además tiene un espacio reservado para colocar los eslabones rápidos de repuesto., de modo que no se pierdan. Buena y práctica herramienta.

Seem to be well made and are lightweight. Great color in case you drop it in the woods.

This tool is cleverly thought out.It works well to open or close the chain quick link.I like the storage place for a spare quick link within the tool.It doubles as a pair of tyre levers as well.I always take it with me when out on the bike.

This is a nice addition to a toolkit to add quick links and a link plier to tire levers. The hiviz orange is nice and functional.

This worked fine on my sram eagle chain to open the master link. I like that it is compact and doesn't take any extra space in my bag because I no longer have to carry tire levers. It also holds a spare link so less likely to get lost.

I really liked this idea and the included storage for quick links. But it’s not designed to hold or snap together. You have to use a rubber band which is just one more thing to keep track of or one more thing to fail. I never used it as a tire lever and given the type of plastic it’s made from, I’d be cautious applying much force on tight tires. The one time I actually needed it to help someone else on the trail it snapped when I tried to open a quick link. Of course that’s not surprising when you see how little of it was reinforced. This seems like a prototype product that hasn’t been fully tested and developed to hold up under the conditions it’s likely to be used in.

Trying to lighten my tool kit and this did the job. Sturdy, well-designed...... But I found that you can use the pliers to crimp your cable ends also.

They work. They are not as nice as the wolftooth chain pliers, but they cost a third as much.

After months in my bike tool kit sitting in the Texas sun the levers became brittle. They snapped on a stubborn link. I think they are of good design and they worked well for many months. The snapping of one lever was more my fault in that it truly was a stubborn link and required more than normal pressure to release even with steel removers. I think if I were touring or ridding in areas where I was isolated I would go for the same design but out of hardened steel.

I chose this Granite Talon ($12) over Wolf Tooth Pack Pliers ($33) because (A) this is made of stiff nylon (vs alum) as tire levers, and (B) they come apart to 2 pieces (easier when used as tire levers), and (C) 1/3 of the cost. I picked bright orange so not to be forgotten/lost on trail side.Prior to purchasing, I've read in reviews below that this item only works to squeeze/remove the master link but not to expand/install the master link (per not having the outside notches). For the price, I was eager to just Dremel out notches to shape it like Park Tool MLP-1.2 (or the Wolf Tooth for that matter). Fortunately, I tested (12spd/SRAM) and found out that it works just fine to expand/install the master link "as is" without any mod's: no slippage, no awkward difficulties.One minor mod I made was to add a small strip of magnet inside of a lever that holds master links (pic). The holes to hold master links are a bit on the loose side, and they'll just fall out when flipped. Easy mod/fix - no biggies. (There's enough depth inside a lever for a magnet strip without bottoming out against the other lever when put together.)I've also read that these don't "snap on" to each other, which is quite true, but that's fine because of the infrequency of the trail-side use of this tool just sitting in my pack. I did in fact try to mod it initially by adding another magnetic strip to magnetically snap them together (pic), but quickly decided to un-do it because (A) that made it almost worse (a master link would come off stuck to the magnet-mod lever when parting the levers), and (B) I couldn't make the magnet quite strong enough for the 2 levers to magnetically snap together, and (C) the included rubber band (x2 included) actually worked better than my magnet-snap idea especially when placed at the upper section just below the pin (pic) as indicted in the included instruction sheet. Simple yet quite effective! You just keep one rubber band there at all times; while stored in pack, and while converted into pliers. Just let the rubber band stretch when pulling apart the 2 levers, flip a lever, then put thru the pin together as a plier (& do the opposite while putting away). The rubber band doesn't not interfere with operating as pliers (pic); and just keep it on one lever when used apart as tire levers.Highly recommended!
