Daysaver IncredibleX & Pump40HV: Lab-Tested Review

Jennifer Miller · 2026-06-12

Integrated bike storage is one of the biggest trends in cycling right now. With the IncredibleX multitool and Incredible Pump40HV, Daysaver offers a smart solution for riders who want to keep essential tools hidden away and out of sight. We put this system through its paces in both lab and trail conditions to see how it really performs. ### Daysaver IncredibleX & Incredible Pump40HV Overview The system consists of two main pieces: the IncredibleX multitool and the Incredible Pump40HV. The pump acts as a storage housing for the tool, or you can mount the tool inside your handlebar. It's all about keeping your bike clean and clutter-free. ### Incredible Pump40HV: Compact and Clever The pump's design is all about pack size. At just 4.9 inches long, it easily slips into a jersey pocket, frame bag, or the chest pocket of a pack. Despite its small size, it delivers a 40 cc stroke volume, which is impressive for its dimensions. - **Optional hose**: This screws onto the valve but releases cleanly when disconnected. No more pulling out the valve core, which is a common annoyance with screw-on pumps. - **Storage**: The pump doubles as a housing for Daysaver tools and can be mounted to a bottle cage or tool mount with an optional bracket. - **Ergonomics**: The pump cap has a square-edged shape. When inflating to higher pressures, like on road bikes, it can dig into your palm, making it uncomfortable. The removable hose prevents air loss during use, which is a nice touch. You can also store one of the Incredible tools inside the pump body. ### IncredibleX: L-Shaped Design for Better Access The IncredibleX is being replaced by the Incredible8. They're nearly identical, except the IncredibleX uses two-piece bits while the Incredible8 uses one-piece versions. The two-piece bits will still be available separately, offering flexibility. But for most riders, the lower price of the Incredible8 (saving about $20) is a big draw. When unfolded, the IncredibleX has a distinctive L-shaped design. This layout gives you better access to bolts that traditional tools can't reach easily. The leverage is excellent, especially when loosening pedals with the 8 mm hex key. The bits and holders are easy to swap, even with gloves on. ### Storage Flexibility Storage is where this system shines. The tool mounts inside your handlebar using adjustable end plugs that expand mechanically. This isn't just friction-based, so removal is cleaner than most. You can also store it inside the pump body or use a OneUp steerer mount. In any configuration, it stays rattle-free. ### The Drawback During testing, one of the bits broke. The modular pin-and-magnet connection is sensitive to incorrect installation. If bits aren't fully seated in the holder, they can fail under load. This is a real concern for riders who rely on their tools on the trail. ### Final Verdict The Daysaver IncredibleX and Incredible Pump40HV make a strong case for riders who want clean, integrated storage. The build quality is premium, and the modular compatibility is impressive. The L-shaped design offers real access advantages that a straight tool can't match. **Pros:** - Clean workmanship and premium materials - Versatile integration options (handlebars, pumps, mounts) - Excellent leverage with the L-shaped design **Cons:** - Bits can break if not properly seated - Pump ergonomics could be better - Price is a bit steep If you're willing to pay the price, you get a system that's engineered with care and ready for daily trail use. Just make sure you seat those bits properly.
