@IvanMTB – Cheers for the head’s up! Looks like there’s a whole load of those on Aliexpress and eBay for not much money. Wonder if they’re all unique or perhaps coming out of the same place?

@irollones – That cassette looks insane! The machining detail is lovely, and 318g for that range?? Impressive. Great suggestion!

Incredibly well-put Hannah, and I think you’re Bob-on.

The fact that women’s racing still appears to be an after-thought in 2017 is not good enough.

And I have to disagree @eddiebaby – today is the perfect day to call out inequality and to draw people’s attention to it. Otherwise indifference only supports the status quo and the inequality it sustains.

Though I will leave my personal opinion out about Pinkbike and gender equality :-)

Great suggestions guys!

I typically carry a spare tube, tyre levers, multi-tool and CO2 canister, so most of the above suggestions sound like they’ll do that.

Any specific recommendations for something that’s easily moveable from bike-to-bike?

I’m not always heading out with a full backpack full of gear, so it’s nice just to peel a saddle bag off one bike and strap it onto another knowing I’ve got the bare essentials even for a short ride.
