Spare pump - how do you carry?

[Kerry1976]

My parents bought me a crank brothers power pump to take with me on rides in case of emergency. However, the pump is too big to carry with tire levers and a tube in the seat pack I have (a Krieg from TE). My seat pack is pretty small, so considering a bigger one. Is that the recommended way to carry it with you on rides?

I may be courting fate, but I only have a CO2 cartridge. I do carry a pump in my seat bag on the mtb, but it's easily twice the size of the bag I have on the road bike.

My bikes both have attachments on the frame that the pump clips into, the local bike shop did that for me. I think it's a pretty straightforward job, if you have a local shop you trust to do the work. They can put a clip on for a waterbottle too, if you don't already have one.

I use CO2 for my road bike for road emergencies. Otherwise I use a floor pump.

I use a Lezyne frame mini-pump and it came with a water bottle mount (you mount it on the same brazens that the bottle cage mounts on). I'm surprised that the Crank Brothers pump didn't come with its own mount, as many mini pumps do these days. As a backup, I also always carry (in my Topeak seat bag) a C02 inflater with 2 extra cartridges.

I was surprised as well that it didn't come with brackets to mount. I don't think it occurred to my mom to even think about that (although the LBS should have asked - they could have made more $$).
