Nifty Design for a Compact Ratcheting Screwdriver for Bike Repair

The Lollipop by bicycle tool company 711L

This Lollipop ratcheting screwdriver, patented in the U.S. by Taiwanese bicycle tool company 711L, appears to be a simple shaft with a knurled grip.

If you need some extra leverage, you can pull the red endcap out. It's attached to a shaft that terminates in a knife hinge, so you can make the tool L-shaped, giving you that extra bit of torque.

 

 

The magnetic driver comes with eight bits.

It can also be used as an extension for one of the company's more conventional mini-ratchets.

 

The black version is made of aluminum and costs $54.99; The silver version is stainless steel and costs $75.99.
