Bicycle Doctor - faqs

What should I take on a cycling holiday ?

If you're flying with your bike you'll almost certainly need a spanner with which to remove your pedals, otherwise here is a list of essential tools that we recommend travelling with

pump
Spare inner tube
3 tyre levers
Puncture kit
6" adjustable spanner (or a 4" adjustable if you have quick release wheels)*
Chain link rivet extractor tool*
Set of allen keys appropriate to your bike*
screwdriver*
A few zip ties (6")
Gear cable and rear brake cable
A couple of nuts, bolts and washers (M5x16)
A piece of rag and a few wet wipes

* = The Topeak Alien Multitool could be taken in place of these tools.
