The new Wolf Tooth 8-Bit System is a group of multi-tools designed to work together to solve most trailside fixes. They are lightweight, strong, versatile, and small enough to fit in a jersey pocket or riding tool wrap.
Three multi-tools begin the 8-Bit System:
- 8-Bit Chainbreaker + Utility Knife Multi-Tool, which also includes a tire plug – $69.95
- 8-Bit Tire Lever + Rim Dent Remover Multi-Tool – $19.95
- 8-Bit Pack Pliers with 17 functions on their own – $69.95
A total of 22 functions between the three tools will keep you rolling to the next town or trailhead. All three tools nest together via magnets and clever machining. Buy them separately or as a full system.
- 8-Bit Kit One $139.95
Thoughts => I got a preview of this new system at the Sea Otter Festival the previous week. I’ve been using the 8-Bit Pack Pliers for around a year now, and they are my go-to tool while out mountain biking. The addition of the new tools will make 8-Bit System the ideal multi-tool for field use for any type of biking. I am most intrigued with the ‘8-Bit Chainbreaker + Utility Knife’ since that will make my 8-Bit Pack Pliers do just about any repair. All the tools are highly useful and have the typical excellent craftwork from Wolf Tooth.
8-Bit Pack Pliers
The 8-Bit Pack Pliers is a lightweight multi-tool with 17 functions. Eight attachments nest inside the handles of master link pliers using magnets and a clever storage system. These attachments then fit into an 8mm ball detent swivel head that has a 4mm opening for hex bits, which adds functionality to the already-versatile master link pliers. This new multi-tool was created to solve almost any minor repair on MTB and road riders alike.
- 17 functions: spoke wrench; valve core wrench; flat head #3.5 and Phillips #2 screwdriver bits; 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8mm hex; and T10, T25 Torx-compatible bits; install and remove master links; clear tire sealant clogs from valve stem; tighten valve stem lock nut
- Magnets keep all bits in place
- Ball detent swivel head helps access hard-to-reach places
- Handle doubles as breaker bar for extra torque when the head is bent
- 8mm hex bit tested to over 40 Nm torque
- $69.95
8-Bit Chainbreaker + Utility Knife Multi-Tool
The 8-Bit Chainbreaker + Utility Knife Multi-Tool has three functions. It has a chainbreaker on one end and a retractable utility blade on the other. The chain tool is operated by an included 3mm hex L key that doubles as a tire plug inserter. A machined slot fits the L key and converts the entire multi-tool into a tire plug inserter, with the forked end of the L key extending outward.
The handles of this multi-tool slide open to provide storage for tire plug inserts, a valve core, and a spare mini utility blade.
This multi-tool is designed to work on its own or be grouped with other 8-Bit System multi-tools. All three multi-tools nest together via magnets and clever machining. These were designed to solve most trailside fixes to get you back to the trailhead or next town. They are strong, versatile, lightweight, and small enough to fit in a jersey pocket or riding tool wrap.

8-Bit Tire Lever + Rim Dent Remover Multi-Tool
The 8-Bit Tire Lever + Rim Dent Remover Multi-Tool has two functions. A slender, ergonomic plastic tire lever is on one end opposite of a machined aluminum rim dent remover. The tire lever will work with all tubed and tubeless tires, while the rim dent remover is compatible with all metal rims.
This multi-tool is designed to work on its own or be grouped with other 8-Bit System multi-tools. All three multi-tools nest together via magnets and clever machining. The 8-Bit Tire Lever + Rim Dent Remover Multi-Tool will pair with both or either other 8-Bit System multi-tools. These were designed to solve most trailside fixes to get you back to the trailhead or next town. They are strong, versatile, lightweight, and small enough to fit in a jersey pocket or riding tool wrap.
