Equipment Inspection for Repairs
The Minimal Standard
1) The multi-tool! Most multi-tools include all the metric “Allen” and “Torx” sizes needed for a bike.
2) Many even have a chain breaker, which is essential in case of chain repair.
3) Always carry a spare chain link on your bike; many people attach these links to the derailleur cables using tape.
4) A spare inner tube and a pump, or a CO2 with adapter are essential in case of a flat tire. Prefer a pump for multiple uses.
5) Tubeless tire repair kits are also available, but will never replace the inner tube and pump.
6) Patch kits to repair an inner tube or tire sidewall are also a good idea and can save a bike ride.
7) A 27′ inner tube can be strategic. It stretches onto a 29′ and can be somewhat compressed for a 26′. For children’s bikes, a 20′, 24′, and 26′ inner tube can be useful.
