On the Workbench
After getting the latest PR about a return to Kickstarter and another launch, I asked Brian Davis the Founder of Fix It Sticks what was going on. He told me
Fix It Sticks returns to Kickstarter to launch their all new replaceable line of tools. Last year the company came to life making 2 sticks with permanently installed bits that interlock to form a T-wrench. Now they return to bring a more flexible line of tools that have replaceable bits.
So that’s a Fixit Stick for your pocket – we put ours in tool rolls – and the work bench. the Fix It Sticks Replaceable Edition is on Kickstarter for $30 per set (expected MSRP: $36) which includes 8 bits total and a recycled inner tube pouch. Also releasing the all new Fix It Sticks T-Way Wrench which is a permanent T-wrench for shop use and comes with 7 bits for $25 (expected MSRP $30). Both tools have powder coating options in case you want to color match with your bikes.
Brian added
With manufacturers using all sorts of different hexes and Torx fittings today this platform makes sense. Rather than buy all new tools riders can just grab a bit from any hardware store. They are past the funding goal, so these tools will be a reality soon, but the discount through the pre-order process is a good incentive to back to the project.
The Kickstarter campaign is here and you can pre-order on the their website too. The original version is also on Amazon.
