Abbey Bike Tools’ name is a tongue-in-cheek jab at the craft beer industry, which often pilfers from the cycling industry to name its products, chosen by a founder who is an enthusiastic home brewer. It's therefore not surprising that the brand came up with its own US-sized pint glass – which holds 473ml of beer – as a promotional item.

Being the brainchild of Abbey, in partnership with another Bend-based company, it's a well thought out item. First, it is flexible and virtually indestructible, the better to squeeze into your pro-tour mechanic kit. Second, it's green and bears that Abbey Bike Tools friar logo, to win you kudos with fellow mechanics as someone who appreciates a good tool.

Third, and most importantly, it is made from 100% food grade silicone, so that it is odour free, dishwasher safe, offers great insulation to keep your beer cool and won't ruin its flavour, the way many plastic cups will. So, with this glass you'll be able to sit back in the pits and enjoy a well-earned tipple after the race, without worrying about any funny after taste.
