Quick look at New Granite Quiver Tool Roll

by 12

The evolution of the humble saddle bag, the Granite Quiver will hold your essential tools, a spare tube, spare change, credit card and other handy stuff for longer rides.

Granite press release:

All New Granite Quiver Tool Roll

Not everything can be ‘Stashed’.

Quiver Roll-Up Tool Bag

  • Dropper post friendly (no interference/allows full drop)
  • Three storage compartments
  • Secure, zipped pocket for keys/cards/coins
  • Splash proof fabric to keep water at bay
  • Dial lock-in system for attachment anywhere (almost)
  • Works with road inner tubes and lightweight MTB inner tubes like Tubolito, Schwalbe Aerothan and Pirelli PZero

The Granite Quiver is a simple roll-up tool bag that allows you to carry any extra kit you need safely and securely.

We wanted a solution for carrying those little extras without filling our pockets or needing a pack. The Quiver looks after your essentials and is attached with our easy-to-use ratchet dial. The dial tightens and secures the roll and its contents to the saddle rails or anywhere on the bike that can strap the Quiver on snugly.

It’s quick and easy to attach and release, giving rapid access to your stuff, and allowing you to swap it between bikes. This dropper post friendly tool roll keeps your things safe from grit, mud, water, grime or whatever your trails might throw at you. The addition of a zip pocket adds extra security for spare change and a credit card for when it’s time to hit the cafe.

    I’m generally a fan of granite stuff but this seems like a very generic tool roll/burrito thing as opposed to their something different approach to most things, it doesn’t seem to fit unless I’m missing something?
    Oh they added boa.

    I kinda wish they had not fallen into the trap of making it all fit around a tube. Most of us just strap those to a frame, but it’s the few extras that you can’t stash that would benefit from something like this.

    And if you try a roll based around a tube they are always too baggy without.

    The search for a small frame roll/stash continues. Maybe I just need to get a sewing machine.

    Unsure ‘most’ of us strap a tube to the frame…does seem common but I’ve also noticed those who need to use the tube soon stop strapping to frame when they discover how manky the tube is when it needs to be used.

    Does it work with a Reverb AXS?

    Fair. I am be over generalising here.

    I’ve also noticed those who need to use the tube soon stop strapping to frame when they discover how manky the tube is when it needs to be used.

    Not sure I agree here. Maybe those who never take it off the frame until they need it – and also don’t have to deal with sealant. I know if I’m in a tyre off situation then there will already be sealant mank everywhere so I don’t care about a bit of muck in the tube! Then again, when I carry one, I clean and check mine every couple of months (or so).

    I use the Silca

    This lot fits in easily, with space for a bit more.

    I’ve got the same Silca I wouldn’t say it’s the best design going. I find I have to wrap a toe strap around mine and the saddle rails else the thing comes loose.

    Weird. Mine seems OK.
    Wrap a bit of inner tube around the rails?

    That’ll be the difference, the people I’ve seen having this issue don’t tend to bother cleaning stuff with any frequency. Drivetrain gets a squirt of lube and not much else.

    ‘Splash proof fabric to keep water at bay

    I’m reading this as, not waterproof, but OK if it gets a bit wet in the rain.

    Seeing as most people don’t like using mudguards (preferring waterproof shorts and dropper post protectors) and it’s in the direct firing line from continual water/mud/wettest of wet stuff from the rear wheel, I’d think waterproof would have been an essential.

    Having lived through the 90’s saddlebag full of rusty tools, are we still supposed to wrap everything in an asda bag to stop it getting soaked in something I’d just dropped £30+ on?

    I suppose it’s a step up from using just a velcro strap.

    +1 for this comment, I’ve left tubes on the frame only to look at them a few months later to find the tube has been damaged/got a split in it due to grit or whatever get caught in it.

    That said I do long rides, so quite happy to ride with a pack and know I have plenty of water, snacks, tools, spares & even a jacket.
