Ok so I've got a cheap one but was very stuck today as my chain snapped! Thank you very much to the guy who fixed my chain with his very handy (much better than mine) multitool at coed y brennin.
I've got a budget of £30 and looked at the top peak hexus which looks good for the money.
What can you guys recommend?
buy a separate multitool and chain tool. almost without exception chain tools on multi tools aren't great.
Lezyne RAP13 is under £20 and a decent tool with a good chain breaker.

The one on my Crank Brothers 19 multi-tool is pretty decent.
Theflatboy +1. It allows for a decent grip on the tool whilst turning it to pop out the pin and also a decent thumb piece to allow it to be held steady.
My cannondale kitchen sink is pretty good.
Ive had a Crank Bros multitool for nearly 10 years now. Works nearly as good as a seperate chain breaker.
Topeak Hummer/Hexus chain breaker as good as the park one in my toolbox.
crank brothers multi 19 is good.
+1 Crank Bros multi 19.
+2 Crank Bros multi 19.
Topeak Mini 18 here, has a very good chain tool and can be picked up for about £20.

Superstar tool, mines ace and contrary to some other views ill use the chain tool on it over my couple of proper chain tools every time!
Another Crank Brothers multi 19 here as well, in blue.
Would consider Leyzene tools if the Crank ever fails.
I've a Topeak Hexus too, chain tool is very good, the pin is proper tool steel not stainless too, so it should last.
Topeak Alien.
Another Topeak Hexus user, great chain tool on it.
Hexus here too... Chain breaker is absolutely first class, and it's a superior tool in just about every other way too. Except the tyre levers, they're pish but hey, most tools don't even try that. Not as well made as teh Crank Bros and Lezyne ones mind but better designed.
thanks guys i saw a vid on youtube and the hexus did it for me at only £18 its a steal!
thanks guys.
