Don’t need to pack that, I’ve always got it.

stoopid double post

I use a saddle bag with spare tubes X2 and showerproof top inside = lock
Pump attached to bike (dont get amicro pumops weigh nothing and if you have to pump up your tyre you need to be able to inflate it to the correct pressure within an hour (you have been warned)
Bumb bag type thing (has a proper name I am sure)multi tool , zip ties, keys, glasses and spare lenses , money, food , waterproof shorts,credit card, phone, batteries for lights in winter.
If you break down on road bike you can be a long way from home so be prepared.

Holy crap.

Aye I think it’s called a fanny pack.

I’m intrigued how your showerproof top = lock, do you tie a knot in it?

Agreed KN, that is a lot of stuff.

Waterproof Shorts? WTF? I know you can go pretty quick on a road bike but its not that scary! 😆

a small pump that takes co2 canisters but can be used as a hand pump also.
1 co2 with the foam surround so your fingers don’t freeze to it.
1 tyre lever
1 tube
park patch kit
multi tool
1 spare chain pin.
keys (just the 2 house keys)
latex gloves and one of those foil wrapped handwipes you get on flights.
mobile phone
couple of energy bars
£10 note

all fit in jersey pockets. the small bits go in a soft bag that came with some glasses.

still room in the pockets for arm warmers or more food for rides over 60miles.

waterproof shorts? ride home fast to keep warm!

latex gloves and handwipes, ocd alert 😉

no. just white bar tape 🙂

Arkel saddle bag w/
– tube
– allen keys
– chain tool
– tyre levers
– puncture kit
– hand wipe
– CO2 canister + head
Down tube mounted mini pump
2 bottles
Edge 305
err… that’s it, apart from clothing to suit the conditions + food for the length of ride.
I’m sure I shold really be carrying a camelback with full tool kit + 3 litres of water

Don’t you mean gray bar tape ;), been there done it.

All in jersey pockets:

Tube
2 Levers
Blackburn mini pump
Park patches (the tiny pre-glued ones)
Phone
Debit card with fiver round it (in sandwich bag with phone)
Keys
Few bars/gels
Crank Bros multitool (usually but not always)

And maybe armwarmers/gilet depending.

A couple of things (pump and multitool) are a bit bigger than they need to be but I can’t really justify replacing them.

Cheese N Rice, just get one of these then…..
