Bike Chain Bottle Opener

Make a small pocket-friendly bottle opener from an old bicycle chain. I have seen bottle openers online using a piece of old sprocket for the opener and a piece of bike chain for the handle. I didn't have a spare sprocket, but I thought the chain alone would open a bottle and be a lot easier to carry.

Make an extra one to keep in your saddle bag and you'll always have a few spare chain links if you ever break a chain while away from home.

Using a chain tool, separate 12 to 16 links from the chain.

Odell doesn't make Blue Moon. The bottle above is a Blue Moon. Blue Moon is a twist top.
