Leatherman Mako Ti Owner's Club
on: July 21, 2024, 06:25:18 AM
  Bought this Mako Ti quite a few years back as it appeared to be functional as backup cycling tool.

  Have used a Hex bit and seems like I forgot to put it back, or it fell out somewhere. And today I needed to remove a spoke from the rear wheel as I had broken two on opposite sides. Had contacted a bicycle repair shop and they needed to know the spoke measurement of the Spank Spoon 28 rim that was crisscross laced to a NuVinci n380. And... I know I have a few circular spoke wrenches laying around....  :ahhh  ... yet I could not find one today. Was about to use a Crescent wrench when I remembered the Mako Ti was laying in a zippered tool pouch on the TerraTrike Rover. Super easy to use. Will probably pick up a Park Tool Spoke Wrench to have on hand at home though, and the Mako Ti goes back where it is needed -- Rover's tool pouch.
  Spoke ended up as 156.50mm x 2.0mm via micrometer, as opposed to 6 3/16" using a tri-ruler.

  So... I found out something the Garage #5 cannot do.... spokes!  :ahhh

Good thread.   :tu:

You should post a link to it in the Leatherman Clubs thread so it can be added to the list.

Nice tool, appears most versatile and appropriate for an emergency repair kit.

I was not aware it even existed, otherwise I would not doubt would have one. 

👍
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

  Found this one online through some discount store. The price was right.  :D

  There is one on eBay for $56. A tad inflated in price since they originally sold via PocketToolX around $30.

  Still carry a PocketToolX Piranha with a 4" stainless steel Standard/Metric ruler.

  Leatherman's Piranha were inferior to PockToolX's versions. All the ones I had and their Crocs broke in use.
