mechanics stand, hands down. I don't know what I will do if I have to go back to working on my bike upside down.

I'm still in that situation, however sometimes I have the money ready to buy one... Then something on my bike breaks so I end up putting that money elsewhere!

I have that tool. I dont like the chain breaker on it though. Its hard to hold the tool and the chain at the same time.

Out of the whole workshop........... hmmm............ I think it would have to be my ball-ended Pedros allen keys (2mm-10mm plus T25), they are the nicest fitting, strongest allen keys I've ever used.

My mate has this one! Lucky he does actually because it saved me one day when i twisted my chain, he cut the chain down with it and i just kept it in high gears for the rest of the day was so thankful he brought it with us. Top quality chain breaker too! And the tyre levers act as an allen key too!
