Hey all, we wanted to share some tips for building a lightweight bike repair kit for on-the-road fixes (or on-the-trail).
Even a small thing like a flat tyre or tilted seat post can majorly hinder a ride. With the right tools, it's normally fixed in no time. These are the 9 bike repair essentials we think are wise to keep with you.
It's exactly what we take on every ride, whether it's off-road or on-road, bikepacking or bike touring, long-haul or day ride.
It all comes to about 600g and can fix pretty much anything you're likely to encounter whilst out riding that you wouldn't need a full-blown bike tool kit or workshop to fix. It's also not too expensive either.
I've put product links below where possible. Some items are non-branded and just picked up from hardware stores/online.
Mini adjustable wrench - unbranded
Multi-attachment screwdriver - Stanley 4-in-1 Pocket Screwdriver
Multi-tool - Leatherman Rebar
Mini Chain link tool
Chain wear tool - Fat Spanner Chain Wear Tool
Allen Key Set - Decathlon Allen Key Tool
Tyre lever and bike tyre repair kit from Decathlon
Bike Multi-tool - Toppeak Mini 20 Pro
Bike pump - Toppeak Tubro Morph G
Bike lube - Finish Line Wet Lube & Decathlon regular lube
On top of this, we'll normally take an inner tube, cable ties & duck tape. Our spares will depend on the type of trip.
Hope this can be helpful!
