Bike parts and tools that can open beer bottles

Lets make a list for all the boozy bicyclists who failed to buy cans and forgot to bring a bottle opener.

• Shimano DX or similar pedals. The original beer bottle-opening bike component. Little known fact - these were actually designed as novelty beer bottle openers, but Shimano realised that they actually worked well as a pedal too. Bingo!

• Time ATAC's. place bottle under pedal, position rear spring under bottle cap, twist pedal forwards... psst. Glug.

• Buffalo Bill's frame. Only useful if you are in the vicinity of Buffalo Bill.

• Plastic tyre levers. Use in the same way as you would use a lighter, by gripping the bottle neck with one hand and using the thumb of that hand as a pivot for the lever.

• FBM stem. For alcoholic BMXers only.

Right that's all I have for you, it's over to you.

The original and best...brooklyn machine works shinburger pedals with their built in bottle openers.

a lighter is without doubt the second best thing to open a bottle with.

My LBS owner has a pair of them on his BMX

Tthat reminds me... any luck recovering your BMW scott?

villin frames have bottle openers on the dropouts.
surly chain tensioners.

Pedal spanner
Spoke key
Murts teeth (if your near Murt that is)

Don't Surly do a tracknut wrench with a bottle opener at t'other end? I'd post a pic / link but I'm falling asleep.

Surly tugnuts

Just use another bottle.

Method 1 - same way as using a lighter but with the side of the other bottle top.

Method 2 - by hooking the edge of two bottle tops with the second bottle upside down. Use a similar motion to the light method levering the bottle over your knuckle. This keeps the second lid from coming off.

Surly tugnuts

That should be in the anti-porn section.. those things are UGLY.

My apologies for the threadredge but this seemed the appropriate thread to place this:

Waste of metal/time/energy or clever accessory?

Over the years, I've learned to use most anything, including hockey sticks and pieces of firewood. A metal tire lever works really well.

I'm soooooo brazing a bottle opener to my frame.

Does that make me a prick?

Take your pick...

I just got an origin 8 pb&j tool, which has a bottle opener on it :)

Peanut butter and jam tool?

Sandwich inspiration - thank you.

Probably the best bottle opener ever.
