There was time when I would spend $70 just to get off my tits and high as a kite...but the euphoria was temporary and the come down was never very pleasant.Xplora wrote:Rebilda, I'm of the same opinion. After my freakin' pump jumped out of my pocket TWICE on last Saturday's ride, I'm feeling that something needs to be done, but things near kidneys is a bad idea, always. I actually put my phone on the side pocket because if is smashes I don't want the bits near my spine
BTW, you're off your tits high as a kite if spending 70 bucks for something many people use a ziplock bag for seems like a good idea. Cheaper to pay your friends to carry your tools for you... I'm SURE that a 70 dollar doodad like that is a violation of The Rules.
Now I choose to spend MY money on things of my own choosing, which bring me a different kind of euphoria...even if it is a small leather cycle tool pouch. But thanks anyway for your financial advice.
Having said that, I must mention I had not considered the possible danger to various vital organs with wearing tools so close...

I like the MTb tube idea. Found a few online. Pretty schmick. Sounds like a plan. A cheap plan.

Having seen the result of landing on a fairly small multitool in a jersey pocket (MTB stack, handspan size black and blue patch dead centre on the spine) I carry nothing harder than a tube in my pockets.JessicaAlba wrote:Having said that, I must mention I had not considered the possible danger to various vital organs with wearing tools so close...

Have an extensive collection of used bubble-wrap sections from postage items that always come in handy...There seems to be an abundance of nylon material money belts/pockets/pouches in opp-shops where I am at the moment.

its big enough to easily fit your tools, tube, phone?
didnt measure it to see if it will fit into your jersey pocket, but id say it would
