What's the reccomended saddlebag big enough to carry the following:
Inner tube
Co2 inflator
Tyre levers
Tubless patches
Multitool
Keys
I just ordered this, I’ll let you know in a few days if it’s any good. Might be too small for what you want.
Lezyne Bicycle Saddle Trainer 2,973,059,801 Road Case Caddy, Black, 45.5 x 34.0 x 26.5 CM, 0,35 litres, 1–Sb-Rdcaddy-V104 https://amzn.eu/5XN9API
I use one of these

The decathlon one holds a spare tube, levers, crank brothers multi tool and a small puncture kit, could probably get some keys in too without too much faff, straps in nice and tight so no rattles or shakes, works well for what it is, I THINK they come in slightly bigger and slightly smaller sizes to the one I have too
I use the decathlon one on my road bike as it’s so easy to swap between bikes. I think you’d get what you list in it.

had one of these on the road bike for years.. brilliant wee thing. Mine holds 2 tubes, patches, small multi tool, small chain tool and a key.
If you take a bit of time to get all the air out of the tubes and roll them up nice and tight it’s amazing how little space they take up.
I have a Topeak Aero Wedge Pack XS/Micro which is small, well made, tucks under the saddle neatly and surprisingly capacious:

Comes in various sizes - you may be able to get all your gear into an XS/Micro which is 0.4l. If not then the Small which is 0.66l.

I’ve also had similar success with these albeit the small as opposed to the xs/micro
I think about the 0.6ltr mark with most will get you what you need
I use the Fizik one that clips to the saddle for that amount of stuff. Might struggle with a larger multitool and keys as well. I take a spanner as well for fixed wheel duties. I also use the topeak aero wedge on the TT bike and you’ll manage with that too.
Wizard works teeny houdini
Depends on the tube size. 0.6L upward
I've an Altura one on Klikfix. It came with two mounts, so quick to swap between bikes. Iirc, it's 0.8lt.
Bontrager pro quick cleat pack in large. Clip on so easy to switch between bikes.
No seat velcro so doesnt take paint off or ruin dropper post if there’s a hint of grit involved.
Used loads of packs but only one big enough to put my phone, muc-off tool pouch (full), spare road tube plus a few bits.
I use a velcro packing strap to cinch it up if its not full.
Waterproof, tough as old boots and lasted me ages.
Inner tube is a 29 inch mtb tube. Multi tool is quite small.
I use the Ortleib saddle packs - clip on bracket and fully waterproof so don't end up with a rusty multi-tool. Two sizes avail, you'll want the 0.8l for a 29" inner tube.

You'd want the Large Fizik seat pack for that. Aero wedge will be too small too. Packs with clips to rails are much nicer than velcro. For off road, I'd go Ortlieb.
