Is there a multitool that has the correct screw driver bit for gear adjustment screws? They mostly seem to come with a PH2 bit or similar that is useless for bikes. I have a Leyzene carbon and Ti which just has some cross head bit that fits nothing and no flat screwdriver. Its nice and light though.

Park Tool MT-1 have small flat screwdriver, but no 2mm hex head
(usually it is only RD/FD adjustment bolts require either screwdriver or 2mm/2.5mm hex/ you can replace bolts)

44g Parktool MT-1: Flat screwdriver + Hex 3, 4, 5, 6, 8mm + Socket 8, 9, 10mm
vs
44g Lezyne Carbon 5: Phillips-Head screwdriver + Hex 3, 4, 5, 6mm
80g Lezyne Carbon 10: Phillips-Head screwdriver + Hex 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8mm + Star T25, T30 + Chain breaker

And If you look for hex or torx bolts, look in for drone parts. Lots of then are titanium made.

A bit of food for thoughts https://cyclingtips.com/2018/10/the-bes ... 16-tested/

I personally really like my ratchet rocket, removing all the unecessary bits for my bike or even replacing for a better one and like the peace of mind of having a chain breaker "in case of". I know it is unlikely to break a chain on a well maintained bike, but I can hardly think of something more debilitating if it happens
