Great for both home and roadside repairs

Topeak Mini 9

Top Pro

A compact tool for the most common repairs

The Topeak Mini 9 includes seven hex bolts, a Torx bolt, and a Phillips screwdriver, and it is suitable for the most common roadside repairs. It's lightweight and compact, while allowing for enough leverage to open even stubborn bolts. See More

Not for off-road biking because it lacks a chain tool

The Topeak doesn't include a chain tool, which would be needed much more in off-road riding than road and city riding. See More

Top Pro

Lightweight yet sturdy

The Topeak weighs only 0.2 lbs, and it can be folded up like a Swiss army knife, which makes it ideal for travel. Despite it's lightness, it doesn't feel flimsy. The tools are made from hardened steel, while the handle body is made from aluminum, making for a great balance between weight and durability. See More
