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.
