Couldn't find anything in the Leatherman, Gerber or Victorinox ranges.

Would like the plier function of a leatherman, but with as many bike specific tools as possible. Is there a bike tool manufacturer i'm overlooking? If i can get it made out of titanium and ask the parents for it for xmas, all the better!

Cheers

Leatherman Wave comes with a bit driver into which allen key bits fit, however they are not full hex keys only fit into four corners but generally do the job.

I got one with allen key stuff from Aldi years back. Sits quite nicely in my bag.

Yeah, i saw the bit set, but it didn't look very complete, only three sizes? Will have a closer look in store somewhere...

I've got one of these, http://www.trueutility.com/pocket-tools-store/multi_torch_tool.html and it's been nothing short of brilliant.
this is actually the newer model that replaced mine but has all the same tools at about half the price of the equivalent Leatherman.

I've just got a BCB one for about £7 with allthe hex keys. Stainless -not sure how long it will stay so but not wasting a nice Leatherman in my camelbak.
