SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. (BRAIN) — Lezyne has completely redesigned its range of bicycle multitools. The company said the new line focuses on improved ergonomics, increased functionality, and class-leading precision and durability.
"So many multi-tools these days are designed almost as if disposability were a feature," said Micki Kozuschek, the founder and CEO of Lezyne. "By pairing forward-thinking design, modern tool combinations and shop-quality tool bits with class-leading durability, we've been able to create a lineup of tools where each truly earns its place in a rider's kit."
The line includes 23 different models across the RAP II, V Pro, SV PRO, Super V and Super SV collections.
Each tool collection features new, smooth-radius aluminum side plates for improved ergonomics while also keeping overall tool weight to a minimum. The side plates on the V Pro, SV PRO, Super V and Super SV collections also see the introduction of integrated thumb holds for easier torque application. Longer tool bits across the collection allow for easier access to inconveniently located fasteners. The company said a redesigned side plate fixing system reduces pressure points while also providing smoother tool foldout.
Lezyne machines its tool bits in house and said it uses "exacting quality control and tolerances normally reserved for shop-quality tools."
Lezyne's Black Anti-Corrosion Technology will make its debute on tools in the RAP II, V Pro and Super V collections. It is a proprietary two-stage finish that imparts the tools with corrosion-resistance. The SV Pro and Super SV collections employ a grade of stainless steel sourced from Japan chosen for its hardness and natural corrosion resistance.
