• 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 :)

  • 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

    Have got loads of experience and like I said, it depends what tools you already have and which model leatherman you get. Mine doesn't duplicate anything and has come in very handy.

    Not sure about the weight claim but Leatherman fold up - space is more of an issue than weight.
