Abstract
A bicycle repair tool includes a handle and a plurality of repair tools pivotably mounted at one end of the handle. A planar bridge connects the left and right side walls of the handle and serves as a rest surface for the repair tools in their undeployed position. The repair tool further includes a chain tool mounted within the handle and slidably supported at an opposite end thereof. The handle defines an elongated slot at the opposite end sized to slidably receive the threaded collar of the chain tool. The handle of the chain tool defines an opening and the planar bridge defines a correspondingly configured raised boss to hold the chain tool within the repair tool handle when the chain tool handle is in contact with the planar bridge. The raised boss can include a sloped surface to facilitate sliding the chain tool out of the repair tool handle. The chain tool includes a pressure screw having an internal hex head configured to be driven by one of the repair tools.
