Hi, has anyone used one of these, i realise they are a bit more expensive but am a big fan of their water bottles.

Is it possible to squeeze a 29er tube, co2 cartridge, 2 small levers and mini multitool in? Ideally i want to stick to the smaller size one to minimise rattling around.

Or any other alternatives that work with a dropper seatpost.

Thanks in Advance.

Alternatives:

I have https://ilequipment.com/products/seat-bag which I use on the grrrrrrravel bike.  Would work well with a dropper, you can get 700x40 tube, multitool, levers, chain tool and few other bits and bobs in it fine.  Would take what you want just about.

Similar design but in the UK: https://www.weecog.co.uk/collections/on-the-bike/products/bigslider

Not tried the fidlock, but I’ve got the small (0.5l) ortlieb one on my gravel bike (which has a dropper) and it seems to work pretty well

The nice thing about the ortlieb is that it’s properly waterproof, which is handy when it is being sprayed by the rear wheel all winter. Most of the alternatives just claim to be water resistant, although I’ve not tried them so maybe that’s fine in practice.
