At the moment i carry my puncture kit,spare tube ETC in an under saddle bag .Can you get something that resembles a water bottle ( so it can go in a bottle cage ) that you fit these spares in to . Ive thried putting it into a normal bottle but top is not big enough .Can you get 1 big enough to get a mini pump in .Im sure ive seen these somewhere before but cannot remember .

    I used to carry all my spares in a wide topped Go/PSP bottle (the opening being almost as wide as the bottle).....but I grew out of it and put it all back in my seatpack.

    Looked like this...fs0042.jpeg but with added capacity on top.
    I'd rather walk than use Shimano

    Can you get water containers to fit in your seatpack, now that the bottlle holder is full of tools?

    They don't hold much and everything rattles labout ike crazy. You can stuff much more in a saddle pack because it will accept akward shaped items and holds them snugly.

    You can just cut the top off a water bottle and cram your spares in that. If you're woried about anything coming loose - cling film it over the top - sorted. No need to spend dosh.

    Isn't there something called the Cage Rocket that looks like a water bottle but is in fact a tool storage device :?:

    What do I ride? Now that's an Enigma!
