Let's build your ultimate bikepacking repair kit! In this video I’ll take you through my complete kit that I take on multi day, 1000+ km rides. This is my mechanical lifeline, and has got me through some real binds in the middle of nowhere.
I have selected these tools with knowledge from working at Pushbikes, listening to others experiences, having been a mechanic myself, and learning first hand out on the trail.
The main takeaway points
Know your tools. It’s super important to know and understand your tools, exactly what they're going to do, how they're going to help you and that they fit the multitude of different sized bolts on your bike.
How to use them. There's no point taking anything unless you know how to actually use it, and that includes having done it yourself. Watching RU-vid videos on how to fix punctures or repair a broken, is not the same as having actually done this yourself. It makes a huge difference out on the trail when you'll be under a little more pressure. Pushbikes runs hour long, hand on training courses to help you get more confident with your bike.
Know your bike. Your bike has a multitude of different parts on it, get confident by understanding each and everyone and how they operate.
Don't be a weight weenie. This is only going to cost you if and when something actually goes wrong. The tools I have selected are more ‘individual tools’, there's no point taking a multi-tool with a multitude of tiny parts/tools that just make life harder and cause frustration on the trail. My entire tool kit is under 1kg of weight, which is about 10% of my total pack setup of 10-11kg.

Mate, spot on.

just some thoughts: i've blown plenty of derailleur hangers where the derailleur was perfectly fine, so you're on the right track even though you're working hard to overthink it. if your seat snaps off, you can certainly still ride, just stand up and pedal 😋 take the brake pads, an hour in heavy rain with sand/grit will chew up the pads

@ulyssepinon9177 Год назад

Thks for the video. With the derailleur hanger, if you have a bike on which it’s bolted on… get an extra bolt 😅

While Lezyne does make excellent tools, the problem with their multi-tool is that the shafts are too short and makes it highly awkward to get the darn bits to be placed into position, and then to tighten or loosen a bolt. The other thing is I don't see the point of CO2 on a bike camping trip, first you will run out of air, secondly, the CO2 air bleeds out of the tube much faster than regular pump air. But that will be up to the individual, I just don't see the point of them on bike touring or bike packing. As far as spokes go, getting the freewheel off while bike packing is a headache that isn't necessary, since spokes rarely break all I carry is several FiberFix spoke replacements, I've had to use them but they work just as good as a regular spoke, and will easily get you to a bike shop for a permanent repair, and these do not require removing the cassette, thus one less tool to carry, plus they are lightweight, and do not take up as much space unless you can mount the regular spokes to the side of the bike frame someplace. Most bicycle touring people that I know don't even use cleats, they free pedal. I initially started bike camping using cleats, but I have gotten away from them for that purpose. Obviously, this sort of what to carry for tools is a personal thing, but I go by what is the most common breakdown a rider can have. My problem is that I've never had a bike breakdown, other than a few simple tune types of adjustments everything holds up fine, so I kind of ride with fewer things, but I'm not a fool either about it. With today's bikes, a lot of stuff needs to be torqued, so I carry the Lezyne Torque kit.

Great Info

Not a weight weenie but ..... that's a lot of tools to carry, and you haven't thrown in the kitchen sink .... 😅. I do like the sub-set of the tools you are carrying in your "EDC" trifold bag that can also fit in one of the rear pockets on the bike's jersey. In my opinion, the most likely problems happening on the trails are chains and tires related issues. BTW, I just ordered the same chain tools you have. Thanks for the tip!

I also wrap some gorilla tape around the pump. Always comes in handy

@Rekmeyata Год назад

I found the black gorilla tape to be tougher than duct tape, and it sticks better.

@pgreenx Год назад

Debating carrying the sealant. IF I get a tire sidewall tear I will need the needle and thread and extra sealant. Not likely but dont want to be a weight weenie. What do you think?

@adam1885282 4 месяца назад

Individual hex keys are worth the weight penalty for touring

@jordanhasselbalch6441 Год назад

can you/anyone explain how you remove the cassette in the field to repair a broken spoke? Is there something different about this sram? some special lock ring?

Be careful using that Lezyne pump on presta valves with valve core. They tend to stick to the hose and you have to start all over again.... bad design by Lezyne :(
