Quick little tool...it's great, because it's compact, but it still has all the necessary tools built in. i found it REALLY ingenious how many ways you can change things on the tool itself to get different tools, more leverage, or a different "reach". plus, the open-end wrench design allows you to get longer mounting hardware ;)

The Alpha Tool is a well-made unit, constructed of burly tool steel with a thick layer of chrome. It's easy to extend to full length for leverage and the knurled surface is effective for grip. It's heavy, and gnarly enough that it may be too big for some pockets, but it's durable enough to make for a great bench or gear bag tool. The primary limitation is that the open-end design of the sockets make it difficult to spin axle nuts or kingpins, particularly in deep-dish wheels or on trucks where the hanger extends above one side (or an inset) of the kingpin. It's durable enough to last many years.
