Fix It Sticks was born some years ago, after successful Kickstarters, and focus on making innovative, portable tools. Now, the company is releasing a new take on its T-Way Wrench, adding a ratcheting mechanism to compete for the love of pro and amateur bike mechanics all around the world.

“Telling the world, you’re taking on the 3-way is going to ruffle feathers we’re quite sure. Hopefully, before the internal comment army rolls in, we can see pro and ammeter mechanics try using the new Ratcheting T-Way Wrench for a week. I think they’ll be surprised. Several product testers have done just that, and they love it after really giving a try.” said Brian Davis, creator of Fix It Sticks.

First Impressions => The new Fix It Sticks Ratcheting T-Way Wrench tool is extremely versatile with its magnetized bit system, and I appreciated that it’s customizable so I could choose almost any combination of the three bits on the tools ends to match my requirements. I’ve used their non-ratching predecessor for a long time and loved the tool, and this new functionality makes loosening and tightening bolts a quick and easy breeze. Just flick the small lever on the top to reverse the ratches’ direction. As with all their tool, they’re well crafted, tough, dependable, and durable. Excellent job Brian!

Utilizing a T shape allows the tool to comfortably slide into a front pocket, using interchangeable bits allows for superior adaptability. The ratcheting mechanism speeds everyday tasks like installing bottle cages, while still providing plenty of reach, leverage, and flexibility. Home mechanics can outfit a complete tool kit with just a bit kit.

Davis continues, “Today’s bike shops are fighting to be as efficient as possible so we created a tool to help them be more successful. We also have a ton of home mechanics that love our products because they are so flexible and a joy to use”.
