shadow1 Posted May 30, 2013 Share So I am finally making the jump to tubeless. Currently carried a spare tube, puncture kit, tire levers and pump on my bike for those dreaded punctures. I seem to be missing something.... I have noticed that most guys on the trails are carrying nothing extra or just a spare tube and c02 bomb tapped to the seatpost. My question is how do most guys put that tube in without tire levers? Secondly what are most guys carrying with them on their rides? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadow1 Posted May 30, 2013 Share thanks for the replies. I suppose most guys carry them in their top pockets? I never really see saddle bags etc. on bikes on the trails nowadays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rouxtjie Posted May 30, 2013 Share I'm still a sucker.It is the samaritan thing to do, and will earn you extra singletrack karma points, but after summing up the amount of bombs, tjoobs, plugs I have given away without the other person offering so much as a replacement at the trail head or finishline or a thank you beer, I became very "cold"... The one case, an ex rugby springbok nogals was the last time.... Edited May 30, 2013 by rouxtjie Help.Me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
