• Pretty sure I've got all my kit now.
    Just a question on tools.
    I've got a pretty comprehensive multi tool but sometimes see mentions, on people's ultra kit lists, of a small ratchet wrench type thing. Necessary?
    Also, should I take a Leatherman? Never have before, but then again, never attempted anything like this before :)

  • I do but it depends what other tools you take. The more experience you have the more you can whittle it down but I'd rather have something and ride on than not have something and be stuck walking to the next town or worse. Example: all the ultralight packers on the startline that don't even make it half way in TABR.

  • You’ll want kmc quick links for sure.
    Some gorilla tape and duck ties.

    Leatherman maybe what will you use it for?

    Spare brake pads, cleat and cleat bolts.

  • Not got any experience, but leatherman's a pretty heavy and would double up on tools with a multi tool. A small craft knife and a mini set of pliers would weigh a lot less.

    I would go over my bike and check the multi tool covers everything that can possibly come loose/could need fixing. including garmin mount, lights etc
