Silca's Italian Army Knife Multitool - Tredici's mid-length tool design is long enough to provide access to recessed fasteners, but short enough not to experience twist or damage under moderate torque as can happen on longer tools. All tools are forged rather than bent from hex stock. While this method of construction is more expensive, the value is unquestioned during a road-side repair. Mid-length tools also allow us to position the tools within the same plane, reducing the thickness of the overall package by half. Double chromed tools with fully stainless steel hardware and bushings guarantee a long life without corrosion (the number 1 killer of multi-tools is corrosion). Forged aluminum sidebars contain rare-earth magnets for holding a spare chain connector.

The first one of these I got, the Torx T10 bit sheared off on the first use at under 5Nm of torque. Credit to Western, they gave me a new one straight away. Second iteration has bubbling on the plating of the Phillips head. Otherwise no issues with the second unit, but it feels like only a matter of time. Do better Silca
This wrench is half the weight of the next-smallest tool, something like the Crank Brothers multi-tool. The pieces have short lengths, so you won't be able to use this as a main tool for lots of work, but works well for the quick tighten/loosening of a seatpost or stem (to make small adjustments).
