Wolf Tooth 8-Bit Multi-Tool System
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 complete system.
- 8-Bit Kit One $139.95
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 handy and have the typical excellent craftwork from Wolf Tooth.

Wolf Tooth WT-1 Chain Lube
The WT-1 Chain Lube is a premium synthetic chain lube and drivetrain treatment for all conditions. It cleans, protects, works in all conditions, and lasts 3-5x longer than most other chain lubes out there because it is a highly concentrated lubricant (95% lubricant vs. the 25-50% of most other chain lubes) and bonds well to the metal in your chain and drivetrain. It’s available in 2.0 and 0.5 fl oz bottles, retailing for $18.95 and $6.95, respectively.
It cleans and protects chains while improving the overall mechanical efficiency of a drivetrain. This allows cyclists to have just WT-1 Chain Lube on hand instead of separate dry chain lube, wet chain lube, chain cleaner, and drivetrain treatment. As a drivetrain treatment, WT-1 will clean your chain by pushing dirt and debris to the surface where it can be wiped away, and then it will protect your chain in all riding conditions and allow you to ride longer between applications.
- It cleans, lubricates, and protects chains.
- Peak performance in all conditions
- An optimal choice for complex modern drivetrains
- Available in 2.0 and 0.5 fl oz bottles, sold individually and by the box
- Easy to use. Quick to apply.
- It also works on other places of your bike, including hubs, cables, and pulley wheels.
The WT-1 chain lube is highly effective and functional on a bike’s drivetrain, and it’s nice to have a lube that performs ideally in both dry and wet conditions. Its multi-facet use cleans, lubricates, and protects chains in any situation. Just dab some on a clean or dirty chain, let it sit for a bit, and wipe the chain clean to get a perfectly lubed chain ready for any sort of ride.

Finish Line FiberLink Sealant
Finish Line FiberLink Tubeless Sealant represents the new tubeless bicycle tire sealant standard. Developed with Finish Line’s proprietary FiberLink Technology, this low viscosity and free-flowing pro latex formula seals punctures quickly up to 8mm, ensures maximum seal integrity, and delivers optimum longevity.
Kevlar fibers work synergistically with fast-acting natural latex to seal punctures as they occur. The natural latex cures rapidly and seals the puncture while simultaneously Kevlar fibers flow to the puncture, linking and intertwining for extra strength and durability. This hybrid idea was internally referred to as “a double-sealant with triple benefits during development.”
- Pro latex formula utilizes FiberLink Technology.
- Kevlar fibers ensure strong, long-lasting seals.
- Low viscosity is ideal for race conditions.
- Fast-acting natural latex reduces air loss.
- Optimum longevity between refresh cycles.
- Low odor and easy to set up.
- 8oz Squeeze Bottle – MSRP $12.99
- 32oz Bottle – MSRP $34.99
- 1 Gallon Jug
The FiberLink tubeless tire sealant offers some innovative technology, including the use of Kevlar fibers and natural latex. It has a low odor, optimal viscosity and is easy to use. It has the proper amount of chunks to seal bigger holes and is fluid enough for pinpricks from thorns and cactus. It doesn’t dry out, so it lasts a long time, so you don’t have to replenish it as often.
The Original Handlebar Jack
The Original Handlebar Jack is a simple, innovative portable bike repair stand that protects many bicycles and e-bikes’ accessories attached to the handlebars. Those handlebar accessories include GPS computers, night lights, smartphone mounts, e-bike displays/controls, etc.

The Original Handlebar Jack is an ideal portable bicycle repair stand for quick repairs, tire fixes, and maintenance out in the field, around the house, or at the trailhead. It’s compact, decently light, and provides a stable stand design, in which your bike is upside down and held up via the saddle and the two jacks.
