  • i doubt he'd have one.

  • ^^ No, you're a ridiculous object.

  • It's just a fat wallet that carries a phone but not cards unless you bodge it or have a card holder.

    Very useful for keeping shit safe, dry and in one place comfortably in a pocket.

    It's nice, but a bit pricey.

  • I put my wallet/cards and phone in a freezer bag, or a zip lock bag from muji - 1% of the cost and much more waterproof. Makes you look like less of a dick too.

    That said, I have serious issues with anyone who calls themselves a man, but has a coin section in their wallet.

  • Freezer bags will hole out and piss coins all over you making you look like an even bigger dick.

    We don't have muji out here. We only just got sushi.

  • but does it actually take a tube + levers like stated?

  • These aren't just freezer bags, these are M&S freezer bags

  • but does it actually take a tube + levers like stated?

    No but you can fit a tin of pomade, some moustache wax and a handpresso in it

  • oh, and your American Express Black card

  • I prefer the term African American Express.

  • but does it actually take a tube + levers like stated?

    Maybe a latex tube but I'm using butyl 700x19-23s (or something) and it's strictly tube & lever OR phone & keys/coins/cards only. They say it can fit a multitool aswel... which is bollocks.

  • the lezyne alternative to the rarpha 'essentials' case costs like 7 quid, is waterproof, a better size and doesn't make you look like a chump with more money than sense.

  • Fuck you.

  • Carry on.

  • I prefer the term African American Express.

  • Carry on.

    they do airplane hand luggage too?

    part of the transfer range I imagine.

  • This wont get you laid.

    I doubt the font selection budget was anything to wirte home about.

    To be honest its probably not backed by many heroin-sheek-cafe-cyclists.

    But it will not tear or leak in any way, and will keep your shit dry.

    I need my toolbag to line up with the rest of my physical appearance. On and off the bike.

    this is exactly what im talking about. Ill gladly pay triple if that's the cost of the only alternative that dont look like a used piss test.

    I'm all for taking a few precautions with my belongings when I'm on my bike but that's just a little overboard.

  • ^^ lol.

  • colostomy chic

  • I'll mod them with some pink striping, and send them on with a short poem about suffering in the saddle, as a paralell to the daily grind of the human condition.

    £89.99

  • I rather like my Essentials Case (but then I got mine when they were three for £20 at the sample sale last year).

    I get a normal butyl tube, Park tyre levers, iPhone, a couple of cards and a £20 note in mine at a pinch.

  • I don't think I'd pay £40 (mine was £ree).

    Smallfurry you're marketing falls down on pricing. Whole pounds sterling only – anything with .99p involved sounds terribly common.
