You can arrange that with a "lowering mount" from different brands, like Topeak's Alt Position Cage or Problem Solvers Bottle Cage position adapter :)
Other than that, just a stupid but valuable advice: bring the best tyre pump you have, because that's the last item you'd want to fail when there's a need for it.
Marcootsee-
Yeah definitely could but probably for the same price as another one of these tool thingys I ‘spose.
I’m going to wedge a frame pump under my frame bag I think - it’s the only ‘decent’ pump I have and I take it on all my regular rides. Last camping trip I went on I hadn’t thought of doing that with the pump and was putting a lot of faith in a shitty road sized topeak master blaster saving the day should I get a flat…

Whilst progress on the fixed commuter brews.
I’ve got a good week of bikepacking next week. 4 days in Scotland riding from Inverness to Glasgow. Then an overnight trip to the New Forest with some friends.
So am starting to fiddle with bag setup for the trip. Thought I’d be clever and make use of this underside of the down tube bottle cage mount for one of those tool bottles - free up space in the frame bag - buuuuuut im dumb and overestimated the amount of clearance between the down tube and tyre on this silly frame with fat tyres -_-
Yet to start packing, still need to get some bits. If anyone has any bike packing ‘can’t live withouts’ feel free to drop em here
