Carl and Frank (hence Crank Brothers) have always been keen MTBers. Ever since they were engineers working for a diving equipment company in Southern California in the late 1980s, they have been exploring ideas of how they could design cycling products that would improve their riding experience. In 1994 they launched their first product: the highly innovative “Speed Lever”. This telescopic tyre lever made installing/removing tyres from rims much easier. The M series mini tools and the Power Pump range of mini hand pumps followed 4 years later; the latter including the proprietary “high volume/high pressure” switch that is still appreciated today. The brand’s breakthrough, however, came when Crank Brothers launched the Eggbeater pedal in 2001: an extremely lightweight, minimalist pedal with superb mud-shedding capability and 4-sided entry. It is this same pedal platform that paved the way for subsequent pedal models to cover all MTB disciplines – Candy, Mallet and 5050. Today many of the top athletes in the World ride crankbrothers pedals. You will find they are well represented at top level cross-country MTB, Cyclo-cross and World Cup DH events. Innovative design of aesthetically disruptive products remains the core mission. All crankbrothers products are technical, durable and beautiful.

It's a lesson in how to pack the maximum number of functions efficiently into one compact space, yet maintain ease of use for all of them. It's on the expensive side, but worth the extra stretch if you want the reassurance of carrying more than the minimum. It also comes in a smooth pack that slides easily into a pocket and means you won't get stuck with spiky bits when you crash. Style aficionados may want it for that reason alone - we just want it.
Easy to use, high functionality, high-quality tool. Recommended.
The 19's frame is made from aluminium to save weight but the tools themselves are high tensile steel. There's a good spread of allen keys including a stubby 8mm...although this is the same in length as the Minoura, the body of the crank is much longer so offers greater leverage.
Still one of the best skeletal multi-tools out there
Crank Brothers' typical, attractive, Mac style minimalism even extends to their multitools. The 19, weighing 174g, puts every tool you're likely to need on a race or long training ride (except tyre levers) in a very light, easy-to-use penknife design. The cahin splitter is particularly good and you get a proper 8mm Allen key. Steel-tool quality is good enough for several years' careful use before the favourites wear out, and the knurled alloy frame adds extra leverage. It sits nice and flat in a jersey pocket and you get a swanky stainless tool flask, too. Price is higher than some comparables, but so is overall quality.
Light, comprehensive easy to use and even stylish
