Euro Multi-Tool

Some Pluses, Some Minuses

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

I'm trying out the Euro13 and it's got good points but isn't my favorite tool. Out of the box one of the pivots was overly loose and I've had to tighten it up several times already, I'll have to disassemble and loctite it. When slightly loose the tool body had a little too much flex. Also the valve core tool was rusted and took pliers to remove the first time. On the good side, the wrenches seem great quality, fitting bolt heads very nicely. Unior says they're the same design as their shop tools which is way better than many other multitools. The included valve core tool is a great feature missing from competitors although I have my doubts anybody buying this wrench will use the Schrader side of it. A couple things are just personal preference. I don't care for chain tools on multitools, they add extra bulk. However this one seems well designed ergonomically. It's cheap stamped steel and I haven't tested it yet. And while the wrenches are good quality, they're medium short in length - they gave me trouble fitting in tight spots like some saddle clamp bolts. I don't care for loose bits like the 8mm, I'm good at losing things. However it snaps onto the 6mm very securely. I'm rather picky when it comes to multitools so take this opinion with that in mind. My go-to is an older Crank Bros tool that's simpler, less bulky, and sturdier. However the wrenches are not nearly as good quality as this.

Great Quality

Well made, great fitment and quality for the hex keys, I don't have to worry about accidentally damaging or rounding something out because the hex keys have good tolerances. The Chaintool on my Euro13 is also a clever design that offers great leverage. Overall the tool is very competitive within this category. I am quite impressed.

You wouldn't think that designing a multi tool would be hard to get right but there is a lot of thought that needs to go into them. Things like weight, number of tools, over all size, how much leverage you can have, and ergonomics can make or break a multi tool. I am really happy to say that Unior managed to get everything right with this tool. I have the Euro 13 model and I can't find anything that I would want to improve on this tool. It fits nicely in my hand, and I can apply enough leverage to work my way through any trailside mechanical issues. I especially love that it comes with a valve core remover that doubles as a small handle for the chain breaker tool. It comes with every size of wrench I need from a t10 Torx to an 8mm allen. Unior hit it out of the park with this multi tool!
