The Lezyne 12 is a stylish and practical design in an overcrowded pocket tool market. The forged CNC machined stainless steel construction improves rigidity and lifespan while the high lustre aluminium side plates look pretty and shave a few grams into the bargain.

Tools are pretty comprehensive: there’s 2,3,4,5,6 & 8mm Allen wrenches, Phillips screwdriver, a T25 torx and a chain breaker that cuts stubborn chains down to size with relatively little effort. This tool even incorporates spoke wrenches- Mavic, two standard and one square. The tools are initially quite stiff and benefit from a shot of Teflon based lube but haven’t become floppy or required tightening despite continuous service.

Phrases such as “ergonomic” are easily dismissed as marketing puff but the shapely profile falls very naturally to hand without pressing uncomfortably into the palm. However, as always with this kind of tool the Allen wrenches don’t offer a great deal of leverage. For this reason an 8mm crank wrench is salvation in a dire emergency but a test of perseverance to achieve anything resembling a snug fit.

A sturdy neoprene sleeve prevents injury in the event of a tumble but it’s a faff when you’re in a hurry-a pouch would’ve been better. Small niggles aside the Stainless 12 combines good build quality, shapely design and keen pricing making it a worthy choice for most riders.
