On bike carry tubeless jabber

I know of a few options for carrying a mutlitool in the steerer. Are there any options for carrying a tubeless salami fork on the bike? That is the tool I want to be available most rapidly, so a steerer mounted one would be ideal. To me that would be more useful than a mutlitool.

I don’t like the idea of anything in the bar ends, but might consider a different option if anyone has ideas.

I use a few different methods (depending on what bike I’m on and route I’m going):

Bar bag
Saddle bag
Tool bottles
Small hip pack
Small backpack/camelbak

Not tried this one but would also work:

How often do you need it? I think I’ve used mine about twice in all the years since I started running tubeless. Guess you must live somewhere flinty?

This one is even more minimal

But a couple of elastic bands used to hold your tubeless kit to your bars would be even lighter and cheaper.

At the moment I have one in the hip pocket of my bag. But to me steerer mounted would be ideal. I have the One Up pump and tool, but it doesn’t have a solution for the jabber.

I got a stans dart thing a couple maybe 3 christmases ago. It goes with me on every mtb ride. Still waiting for an opportunity to use it!

Having it permanently attached to the bike would be more of an issue as I have 2 mtbs. Therefore it’s in my fanny pack

Bar ends – depending on the grips you use.

Very good discount on these Muc-off ones at the moment (random colours available though!)

Yes it does, One Up does a jabber that goes in place of the CO2 canister.

My OneUp tool has the jabber, it’s a great wee thing, always at the ready, and you get a chain pliers also, all goes in the storage cannister

I can’t recommend it at the price but

Doh, beaten to it multiple times whilst I faffed

‘Tubeless jabber’😂 is that the technical name?

I have a stans dart as I’m wary of carrying a miniature pitch fork in my pocket. It’s tiny so may be an option

It is overpriced, no argument – in fact, bloody hell, it’s even more expensive not than it was… 50 euro?

Having it buried in the pump is even worse than in my bag… Steerer mounted is what I want!

I’ve got the Granite one that sits in the end of your bars:

Granite Stash Tubeless Flat Tire Repair Kit

Jabber, file and a few worms in it. Seems to be about £18 in most places. Got the chaintool one in the other side, and their stash tool in the steerer. Really nicely made, and although i’ve not needed to use any of them very much, seem durable.

Boring, and not cheap, but Dynaplug do one with a mount for your bottlecage bolts.

Very effective though.

Dynaplug Racer Ultralite Tubeless Bicycle Tyre Repair Kit & Holder Black

I have the Peaty’s one. Its so tiny you could fit it anywhere.

That is the tool I want to be available most rapidly, so a steerer mounted one would be ideal. To me that would be more useful than a mutlitool.

Daft question but what’s your logic on this?

You’ll very rarely use it vs a multi tool.

The ease of access for a multitool is actually very useful, changing it from a “next time I stop” to a “right now” job, a tyre failing to seal badly enough to need a fix is never anything other than a now job.

Being able to leap, catlike, from your bike jabber doofer in hand isn’t going to save you needing to reinflate the tyre, so you’ll need the pump or co2 out anyway which will be buried somewhere else.

Repairing the tyre isn’t going to be especially quick because of the above regardless of your ability to react to it quickly.

I’ve got a few of the dynaplug ones, they look very good, the co2 especially, but I’ve only actually used any of them once in about 5 years.

I made my own OneUp jabber.

I have the threadless carrier which only takes the small storage capsule. There was no way I was paying that much for their kit then carrying the pliers separately.

I got a used CO2 cartridge and cut the thread off. Then got a jabber from a cheap generic kit. I loped the handle off the jabber and epoxied the fork part into the threaded bit of the CO2 so it screws into the EDC and fits into the small storage capsule.

Inside my pump I’ve got a CO2, then a rolled up piece of old toothpaste tube as an emergency boot, with a spare valve core and spare worms inside.

I’ve not needed it yet but have helped a couple of people on the trails.

I started at the muc off which is a poor implementation and takes up quite a bit of real estate and ended up with the granite stash system.

Got a ratchet in my steerer – one side of my drop bars has a chain tool and the other a jabber doofer.

Muc off puts a jabber in one side and a file in the other…..
