Down tube tool kit
Posted: Thu Apr 21, 2022 9:45 am
Hello,
I need a bit of advice... I'm off on a trip along the Great North Trail in the summer and haven't done a long trip like this before. I need to increase my carrying capacity a little and one thing I'd like to do is move my tool kit from my frame bag to a mount on the underside of the downtube.
I've got an Arkose X with bottle cage bosses under the downtube. I'm thinking of using a 750ml toolkit bottle (like Zefal or similar) with a cage. I'm not sure a regular cage will do the job, so thinking of a Monkii cage from the BB shop or a Blackburn outpost cage. Does anyone do this or have alternative suggestions? Thanks!
