It's also small enough to fit in a seat pack, just in case you ever feel like torquing in the wild.

FWIW, I bought a Venzo tool kit after resuming cycling in 2015 I needed some tools -- I'd sold everything after my neck and back were broken in a 2001 car wreck, so I figured I'd never ride bikes or need tools again. It's been a good kit, no problems with any tools. And some are really good, like the shop grade chain tool included with the kit. Venzo doesn't offer that particular kit anymore, a shame because it was better than most starter kits. So their teensy torque wrench is a safe bet.
