  • @ The Seldom Killer what kind of distances do you usually do and how often have you needed the majority of those bits?*

    *genuine question - really curious

    I do audax riding so 200k in a day isn't out of the question. I don't use any of these regularly other than inner tubes, pump and tire levers. However, I have needed all of those items at some point and usually at a point where I'm in a remote location with little to no option of getting help. Collectively the rare use bits don't really weigh a great deal so I'd far rather they be permanent features in my tool bag than be hunting around for them when I'm going out long distance. When you need those things in the otherwise picturesque arse end of nowhere at 2am with an imminent epic fail and the temperature is taking a nosedive, you'll be glad you wasted that energy on your daily commute.

    If I were to have a seperate commuting bag, I'd just have multi-tool, innertubes, pump and levers.
