Fresh Goods Sunday - Crankbrothers Pica Premium Multi Tool

I was after another multi tool and I normally buy the crankbrothers m19 or m17 but seen the newer pica multi tools a couple of years ago and fancied trying one out. There are two models the pica & pica+. For the bike I was going to keep it on I opted for the pica.
Here is the spec -
chain tool: 8/9/10 speed compatible
spoke wrench: #0, 1, 2, 3
hex wrenches: #2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8
screwdrivers: phillips #1
torx: t-10, t-25
length 91mm
weight 166g

and the pica+ includes:
chain tool: 8/9/10 speed compatible
spoke wrench: #0, 1, 2, 3
hex wrenches: #2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8
socket wrenchs: 8mm, 10mm
screwdrivers: phillips #1
torx: t-10, t-25
length 91mm
weight 181g        
The only difference is 8 & 10mm sockets which I would not use. In your hand the tool feels good and is really too good to use. The quality of the tool looks to be very good and if it lasts as long as some of my 20 year old M models then I cannot complain. The warranty is 5 years as well so any probs they should replace it.
RRP £50-£43, I paid £20.49 inc p&p from Probikekit 
"A group of talented designers who live, work and ride in Laguna Beach, CA. Crankbrothers is committed to bringing the design language of the modern bicycle up to date with the cutting edge of contemporary industrial design.

There is also a smaller model called the pixl if you don't want the chain tool or spoke wrench but has more screwdriver heads
 
hex wrenches: #2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8
screwdrivers: phillips #2, 1-flat head
torx: t-10, t-25length 65mm        
weight 135g
