Bike wrench doubles as beer opener
By Tim Cigelske • Nov 19th, 2009 • Category: Beer Runner GearYou know that a lighter, you teeth, even a piece of paper can work as a beer bottle opener in a pinch.
Portland Design Works introduces us to yet another option: A multi-use bike tool. As an added bonus it won’t decimate your enamel.
A video for the 3wrencho demonstrates its many uses as a tire lever and wrench to fix a bike flat with one tool. It concludes showing how effortlessly the 3wrencho pops open what appears to be a Deschutes brew.
According to the official product description:
the 3wrencho (raw) is your best buddy when you have a flat. unlike your other friends the 3wrencho is made of heat-treated steel, removes 15mm axle nuts and can pry tires off of rims. feel free to step on 3wrencho for added leverage when loosening axle nuts. other uses: spread peanut butter, open a bottle or scratch an itch.
Thanks to Joe Steve for the tip!
UPDATE with some more options from my friend Greg:
Surly takes it one step further with their wrench, but I personally like their tensioner. It’s like having a bottle opener on your rearview mirror.
