Tool Tales

Bike Saved

My friend and I went to the beach on a bike ride from where we were camping. About halfway there, his bike broke down. He didn't say exactly what was wrong with it, but he mentioned some thing about his front disc brake.

He asked if I had a Leatherman on me. It so happened that I had my Squirt P4 in my pocket. I gave it to him, and he was shocked how small it was. He was able to fix his bike, ride the rest of the way there, and back, and it held. His bike didn't need any extra work on it back at camp. He didn't break it, either. I was so surprised that he fixed it completely. I now am a full supporter of the Leatherman Company. I have only the Squirt P4. I might get the Juice XE6 for my birthday. I continue to use my Leatherman every day.

Tell Us Your Tale

OK, you voyeur, you. Enough of reading other people's stories. It's time you told your own tale of gripping heroism or even just neat DIY'ism. We know there's a Shakespeare in you somewhere. Don't make us use the Steens to find it.
