The Link Wrench is an 8, 9, and 10mm wrench that can be used to open a master link with the included Dyneema cord. How, you might ask? Check out the video at the bottom of the page and carry the lightest master link tool out there. CNC machined from Grade 5 titanium in the USA.

The 8/10mm only version provides more clearance at the 8mm end for accessing nuts with an obstruction behind them (a rack tube, raised edge, etc.). If some 8mm nuts on your bicycle have a bracket or tube behind them, we recommend this version.

Benefits

-No more fiddling with stubby multi-tool wrenches to access tight spaces between racks, fenders and bags.

-A lightweight (22g!) alternative to carrying a steel wrench and master link pliers (~78g for the two).  

-Common 8, 9, and 10mm sizes all in one tool. 

-The Included 500lb dyneema cord from Samson Rope in Bellingham, WA makes it the lightest trailside master link opener around.

A note on nuts n' bolts

You may notice the fit on our wrench is slightly tighter than other wrenches, particularly if you use the wrench on quality in-house made hardware that is not undersized (Paul Component, Rene Herse etc.) However most mass produced nuts and bolt heads you're likely to encounter are slightly undersized. So, our wrenches are slightly undersized to give an optimum fit on the most common hardware. If you wish for a looser fit, you can take a flat file to the wrench flats and in a couple strokes, make the opening noticeably larger.

ummm?

I didn't want to leave a bad review as I think this shop looks really cool but I still haven't received my order after eleven days. I'm sure it's just busy time of year for poast. Cheers!

Hey Alex,

Glad you like the shop. It looks like your tracking says the order is 'in transit and arriving late' . Indeed, it's the busiest time of year for the post and there's not a lot we can do about that unfortunately. If you need anything else, please send an email to hello@foragercycles.com !

Dope lil’ wrench

This wrench is freaking awesome. At first I complained the wrench didn’t fit — too tight! But Andrew informed me about the why, and said to just give it a pass with a file. I did, and works great. Perfect fit. Learn to trust. I use it for brake and rack bolts + the master link cord is genius. Weighs almost nothing. Essential part of my EDC tool kit.

Finally got one!

So much better than carrying an entire set of small wrenches & weighs nothing. This is also quite a bit less wonky than using a Park rescue wrench in tight spots, tho that tool is staying in the kit for the time being.

Essential Item

These are great! I have both versions and absolutely love them. An essential item for any bicycle adventurer. Weighs almost nothing and will last a lifetime. Well worth every penny!

Thanks, Andrew! Nice to hear the wrench has earned a spot in your tool bag.

The Wrenchin' Raccoon

After a few long tours with a heavy toolkit, Forager founder Dan began going through each tool in his bag and asking how it could be made lighter, more versatile, or eliminated altogether. He had always carried a stamped steel 8 & 10mm wrench for reaching those hard-to-access bolts on various rack setups, and used it many times over the years. Titanium was a logical way to lighten it up. Through testing and design specifically for laser cutting and CNC machining, an affordable, ultralight rack wrench was born!

Enjoy!
