I started in 1988 i was 29. Fixed more tube flats than I want to remember. Knock on wood Ive only flatted a hand full of times after going tubeless 15 or so years ago. We been riding a long time steve. Im 65 this year and still racing DH and ebike enduros. Happy Trails
The Topeak multitool that they use in the start of the video features a quick link removal tool and space for a spare quick link , no need for those big Topeak spare ones, get pedros is ones instead, much better
Steve said it out loud. I said it out loud back on halloween, next day, the sidewall split open on my tire 7 miles into a ride. Split right at the seam!
I have a vendetta against bladders, I always forget to get all the water out, and a week later I will have mold in it, id rather carry 4 water bottles than 1 bladder.
When I raced enduro and rally raid I had my tool kit finely tuned - I probably used it for others bikes at least as often as my own. Since taking up EMTB I haven't needed more than a multi-tool - that'll be the kiss of death so about time I sorted out my tool kit. I would also include some insulating tape, a selection of cable ties and some spare nuts and bolts in case you lose one on the trail. A small first aid kit and something to help keep warm should you need to wait for assistance is also worth carrying.
Nice video boys, so personal choice for bladder or bottles, those power levers look fantastic, that ratchet roll or multi tool are pretty much a given, plugs & a mullet tube plus either a pump that excepts canisters or an electric mini-pump (doubles as a pressure gauge), tyre boots looks easy, I'd include some cable ties & latex gloves. BUT brake pads??
essential things to take with you if you have a belt driven bike ! Yep a spare belt, as I found out on boxing day , glad I did take one when it snapped out on the moors. Steve take one when your on the Nicolia bike.
When I change brake pads and they still have some life, I stash them wrapped in a little plastic bag for emergency spares. Never actually needed to swap while out on the trail but doesn't cost me anything.
Every flat I've had tubeless has lead to a long walk out. I seem to have the propensity to put holes in my tires that are the wrong size for the strips of bacon I carry. I'm using the Fox Hip Pack. I carry quite a bit of gear including a Silky...
Scorpion tubes are insanely pricey, the same thing can be done with a Ridenow tube . People now wear these backpack/Camelbaks, maybe you've heard of them. Lots of water right at hand.
Most don't realize how important a sense of humor is when unexpected Stuff happens. Beer is welcome break. Best to concider why , how and when, or forget about it. Cheers!
I carry tube, Co2 cartridge, levers, derailer hanger, master link, piece of chain, brake pads, derailer cable, tire boot, brake rotor bolt, shoe cleat bolt, mini tool, chain breaker, 1st aid kit, valve stem core, spare AXS battery. I'm going to try the Smart Tubes. Had the Tubolito's at one time, but the seam split while in my pack. What the? Threw them away, and would NEVER recommend those.

Not a single zip tie? Or gaffer tape wrapped around your pump? Spokes? Compass? First aid kit? Oh & Knipex 86/125. 😉
Book look cool .
Are those mini electric bike pumps that are all over social media any use ?
YES . they are fantastic and take up less space than a hand pump .
@@siriosstar4789 which one have you got ?
Where is can of beer?
