If you weren’t at NAHBS 2018, chances are some of these items are long gone. These very, very limited edition Walnut, Cherry and Maple handled pedal wrenches from Abbey Bike Tools are $130 each. Only ten of each were made, and they probably sold out at the show, but you can email them and try.

Not shown, the Titanium H.A.G. (hanger alignment gauge) makes a comeback for $325. Only 20 of these were made, usually they’re in steel for $185.

Abbey Bike Tools 4-Way Multitool lets you customize the bits

The new Abbey Bike Tools 4-Way Multitool starts at $40 and comes with any four bits you want. But, it’s also offered in five preconfigured arrangements. Make your own with any allen bit from 2-6mm, torx from T10-T30, a 2JIS/DIN Phillips, or a 1mm slotted.

  • 3 / 4 / 5 / #2JIS

The bits are from Germany, body is made here in the US. Get it from your shop (via BTI) or direct. They’re secured into place with Loctite, so they say you can heat it up to remove any of the bits then swap in your own later.

SRAM didn’t just use an existing tool standard, either? Jesus, that’s DUmB!

DUB is the same interface as ZIPP, Enduro Bearings BSA30, and Rotor BSA30 that have been around for years. Maybe do some research before bashing?

Are those WERA bits in the 4-way? Kind of look like it, but obviously hard to tell in the pictures.

Abbey makes good stuff but I see too many commoners with them. I don’t want to have the same stuff as all the regular folk. Is there anything more exclusive than these? Or some limited edition anodizing so all the people know I am better then them?

Forget those plebs, make your own custom splatter ano at your studio space. Make sure to remove every second notch from the tool first. For absolute lightness, of course.

I love my Abbey Tools. They always look so good in the background of my #coffeeoutside pictures.

I’m not paying $130 for one, but it would be nice if someone still made a quality 4-way 4-5-6-8mm wrench with pivoting ends like the Abbey pedal wrench. The only one I can find is from IceToolz and it’s not very good.
