I just throw a patch on when i take the old tube out when i get a flat, a patch kit costs like 5 bucks and ive had the same 2 tubes for like 5 years, full of patches lol

I used to ride with pump or cell in my middle back pocket.... then I heard of several crash incidences where those hard objects caused spinal injuries. Sure the odds are exceptionally low... but since then only soft goods in the middle and harder on the outer two pockets. Sometimes it's hard to balance and so it feels lopsided.



Now I just use a seat bag cinched down real tight to carry my repair stuff for road riding, and my pockets for food, vest/armwarmers, phone. If mountain biking then sometimes a waist belt (more capacity) rather than a backpack.
