Had a blowout over the weekend and was restocking my bag, so I thought to share.

I've got:

  • Tire levers
  • Combination allen key
  • $20
  • Tube w cellophane
  • CO2 w cracker

Looking at this list, I should probably add a quick link. They're sitting in my tool chest right next to me. My saddle bag is also right next to me... now would be a great time to do that.

Anyways? How do you all pack?

I've always been curious about TPU, love that it packs so small. Do you ride them all the time or just after a puncture?

I ride them all the time. I'm completely sold on them and would use them on any bike except a commuter.

The only disadvantages are the price and them holding air a bit worse than standard tubes so you need to pump them up a bit more often.
