How do you carry tools on your ride? Saddle roll, tool canister, jersey?

[pdonk]

In my tool roll, under saddle

2 cartridges and head
Tube(sometimes 2)
Chain tool
a few loose allen keys

As noted, i have needed all of the above at some point in time. Plus i have broken a crank arm and saddle rails, that nothing would have helped with

In pocket in a donkey label pack animal case- id, cc, transit card, phone, cash.

I would hate to get in a situation where I ran out of water and had to decide whether to drink the bong water or not.

it only needs 1oz of water to fill the chamber enough to use it. but even then if you hit it too hard youll get that dirty splash of water on your lips from the inside. that ti pullcarb with no handle means youre burning your fingers too.

Split between jersey pockets and Silca roll under my seat which I sometimes I do without:
- 1 tube
- 1 co2 cartridge
- Silca cartridge head
- 2 Park tire levers
- $10
- sunscreen

I fit a Pedro's multi tool with chain tool, tire lever and road or CX tube inside. Cash, ID, and patches of I needed too.

This is a really good bag. If you rewrap a lightweight tube just right you can fit a ton of stuff in it and the triple wide velcro strap makes it very snug and secure.

Or there's the Velocolour T&T Dynamite roll, which is a roll/bag hybrid and it's one of the best under saddle carrying options around. http://store.velocolour.com/product/dynamite-roll

I just saw a water bottle cage with integrated multi-tool below the cage. This seems like a good solution. Does anyone make a cage with (essentially) a chewing tobacco tin sized compartment underneath it?

Topeak makes a version of the Ninja cage with bag below instead of the multi tool holder.

Bag is sized for a single tube, but they also make a larger version for MTB tubes.

I like both the Lezyne and the Velocolour one. I wonder if a mini pump would fit in the roll of the VC one.

Then there's THIS! I use the frame mount strap for MTB as well. Very, very secure.

Maybe in a race situation... but seems that is going to get very dirty/mucky very fast.

You'd be surprised, but then I don't typically ride in extreme wet and muddy conditions. If I do "get caught", I just rinse everything off. No big deal.

I prefer not to carry anything in my jersey pocket other than phone and ride food. I use the Velocolor Bidon Stuff bag in my second water bottle cate with 2 16gm Co2 cartridges, a spare tube, Silca inflator, and a few other items. Under my seat I use a velcro strap to attach another tube and tire levers between the seat rails so there is nothing bulky handing off the back of the bike. I usually find a place to fill up my water bottle while on a ride, so i seldom miss having the second water bottle. If I am doing a ride that I know water isn't available, then I suck it up and use a small bag for the stuff usually put in the Velocolor bag.

I have tried some other water bottle cage carriers and the ones that have screw tops seem to open on their own while the Velocolor bag has a zipper that keeps things secure.

I like to ride with nothing in my pockets, except food.

I have a Galaxy 8 phone in an armoured case, a great lump
that needs to go in a bag. I can get notifications on my Wahooooo,
makes bagging the phone even easier.

Bags, Acorn rando, Acorn, Rivendell and Berthoud Banana bags.
The Acorn Banana bag has a side pocket that the phone fits,
very nice.

^Thats good to know. I was weighing the screw tops since they're cheap but looks like I'll be going with a similar situation too.
