Learning a ton from your vids… if you had to pick one tool only- for short weekend bike packing and daily rides - stored in a top tube bag, which one would you pick ? The alien or the PT30? Sorry for such a noob question, I wanna pick one and have that pretty be my mainstay
Thank you for your kind comments and not a noob question. For weekend bike packing I personally would use the Alien. The extra weight and size wouldn't worry me (whilst bike packing isn't a race I tend to look for any training positives that I can 😀) and the useability (larger tools, not having to remove the chaintool, having spanners) in poor conditions can save a lot of frustration. The caveat I would add though is that I would be carrying a separate Dynaplug tubeless repair kit. Do enjoy your bike packing and drop a comment somewhere to let me know how your first trip goes.
Hi there - I do have an Alien 2 review. The Alien 2 is a bigger tool and has some spanners on it. More suited to bike packing and bigger days on the trails.
Best review for this tool I've seen. Great job!
Thank you for your kind words, it is very much appreciated.
Great review! Thank you. :)

Very happy with my purchase and fits nicely into my saddle bag.
Thanks!

Thorough review. Looks like a great, well thought through bit of kit. Might need to get myself one.

Thanks for the great review. Do you have a comparison to the Topeak Alien 2 or 3?
