Its probably not a bad idea, if i got a decent sidewall gash, I'd need to choob it. I carry 3 sizes of plugs. The "normal" thin ones, medium sized ones and then moerse thicks ones that they use in cars.

We popped into the Concept store in Margate to get my helmet and the one Specialized there has the very cool case thingy that fits onto the bottom tube of the bike. Big enough for the basics that would normally go into the saddle bag. I was most impressed with it when we asked Mr Stander about it.The new SWAT products they are marketing. I like them too!

We recently had one shear off whilst using a hand pump to reinflate a tire. Over time the thin metal of the valve fatigues until it fails when you need it not to. A valve is certainly not a "spare" you normally carry, so the tube we had was put to good use. Edited January 14, 2014 by Li Mu Bai MTBc 1

NotSoBigBen Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 At races and long rides not near home I will tape a tjoop to my seatpost, needed it once myself (valve issue as mentioned by Lee Moo Baai) and have given it to at least 2 other people to help them out recently (all fellows that decided they don't need it) Most rides I just put what I need in my pockets like everyone else and stage races I go the full Camel'pack' route .....

Frosty Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 Permanently in a small saddle bag:1x tjoop,CO2 cartridge and adapter,In a small box the patches came in - patches, glue, valve stem, master link, R100, plugs, plug tool.I learnt to use the QR skewer as tyre levers, so no need to carry tyre levers. In back pocket... phone, house/car keys (depending if riding from home or going to an out-of-town ride/race),Spare bottle with water if the ride is longer than 2 hours, and a mini-pump.Apple or banana - if I remember. 1 gel just above the tan lines, under my shorts.
Rydogg Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 I haven't carried spares for the mtb for 2 years. Only had to walk home once (dog bit my tire)
