T3 is crafted to be a slim, low-profile bicycle repair tool with multiple functions, designed for easy portability. Its slender body fits comfortably in any backpack side pocket or small saddle bag. A unique feature of the T3 is that it is the only multi-tool of its kind to include a mini shock pump, specifically for inflating shock suspension on mountain bike frames.
This mini shock pump is intended for emergency use only. It allows cyclists to fine-tune their suspension shock on the fly during mid-trail rides. Conventional suspension shock pumps are often heavy and too large to fit into saddle bags. By integrating this feature into a multi-tool set, cyclists have one less item to worry about carrying during their rides. The other tools included are specifically designed for bike repair and are crafted to withstand extensive use.
A full die-cast alloy body houses the various tool components. The Blackburn branding identity is laser-etched onto each side plate. Each tool bit is made of chromoly steel, ensuring durability over a long period. Additionally, a fabric sleeve is included to keep the tools secure in tight compartments, preventing them from getting caught on fabrics and causing damage.
