How do you carry your flat kit?

I have a Ground Effect Spinal Tap & everything fits nicely. You don't have to put the hydration pack in...

Whoops, sorry...It helps if i read posts properly...:0

I can put my saddle pouch on my mtb but don't normally as i'm bad & don't drink enough with just a water bottle to try & reach.

On my mountain bike, I carry tire levers, tube and patch kit in small saddle pouch. Actually, that is all that I can fit in this small pouch.

Saddle pouch holds spare tube, CO2, patch kit, tools. Not much room for anything else.

Bento box is for my daily stuff - inhalers, phone, $$, keys, munchies

Just go tubeless.

In all seriousness, DH uses a small pouch with a CO2, tire levers and carries a tube in his back pocket when racing.

You can also mount a good hand pump to your frame. The Topeak Morph pumps are pretty strong stuff.

On regular rides, I carry everything in my CamelBack. While racing, I use a seatbag to carry tube, CO2 and a multi tool.

why wouldn't you carry this stuff on a MTB? It's not the weight...?

I've got the Schwinn version of a fanny pack that I've got on the front of my mtb, but it's heavy. It does carry all my fix-it tools, though, plus my phone, keys, First Aid kit, and tissues (my nose runs a lot while riding). D*H thinks it's pretty ridiculous, and I agree with him, so I just ordered a seat bag and a bento box from TE here.

Somehow carrying all the same stuff in two smaller bags makes more sense than the one big bag on the front of my handlebars. Go figure.
