Is there any reason to get the 19 over the 17? The 19 comes with two extra screw drivers but are they needed? I'll probably get the 17 which is a bit lighter and cheaper.

The main difference I see is the addition of the 4mm hex on the 19 (aside from the 'tool flask'). I'd need the 4mm on some bikes, but not others.
7g weight difference (sans flask) is negligeable IMHO, but if you can put some booze in said flask...

I've got the 17...great tool. It has everything I need..well almost...no duct tape.

Went to REI and picked up the 17 today (they didn't have the 19). It was only $17 (25% off) so I'm sure it'll be worth it the first time I have to use it.

The chain tool is the big valuable feature on either model. And the integrated spoke wrenches have helped out some of my buddies with problem wheels.
