Captain Scarlet Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 (edited) Well I'm sure the majority of us have a bag to carry parts and spares on a ride, or possibly a car to store them in. Whats in your bag?, what bag is it?, what is the most random item in the bag? In mine I have; phone, wallet, iPod, camera, tar, allen keys, spanners, tube, grips, sidehop tape, drink and a pump. I remember I packed a lunch for a ride once, and left a penguin bar in the front compartment, I forgot about it and then found it about 3 weeks later, oooh snacks. I was in the habit of using my bikehut/camelbak bag but I can't store enough in it so I went back to a normal backpack. Whats in your bag?

spaceman Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 I just carry my waist pouch, it's very flat and small. In it has the crankbrothers mini tool 10, ipod, key, money (I don't carry my wallet while riding), identity card, small bit of tar. There's plenty of mcdonald's and 7-11 for drinks and food at my side. Spairs: Magura pistons, magura cross over, either a magura or a vee, levers, random bolts, grips, tubes I haven't heard of any riders at my side carrying so many spares! Tubes and patch kit at the most. If anything breaks, like the crossover or bb, we would just take a taxi home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and untill i get my new freewheel i carry a 42mm spanner and a small screwdriver to do up the bearing casing when it comes loose which is like every 10 minutes. Food i just take money because if i take food tom jefferies steals it and i have to take extra money because tom jefferies always manages to blag money for sausage rolls off me.

Rich Pearson Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 In my bag right now I have: Allen keys, leatherman, spoke key, house keys, zipties, condoms, a couple of M5 bolts, headphones, wallet, tobacco, rizla's, lighter, tube, hoodie, camera, tripod, water and my lid's strapped to the mesh on the back. Pretty much what I carry on every ride away from home, but if I'm just riding around town and not filming anything I'll usually just take my fags, phone and house keys (phone is mp3 player as well).

psycholist Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 I bring my phone, as few keys as possible and phone headphones. If something breaks I tend to call it a day (Though a lot of my riding spots are within a km or 2 of my house, so going home doesn't take long. If I'm going further I'll throw the Camelbak I use for XC in the car. That has several tubes, a Topeak multitool, random spares including brake pads, water, a minipump (Though I throw a track pump into the car too), emergency energy goo, a rain jacket etc. and there's a first aid kit in the car if things go wrong in a 'bleeding but not so badly I need to call an ambulance' kind of way...
