Zip Ties To The Resuce!!!

That is awesome. There have been many days that I often wished that I had cable ties with me. A couple in my saddle bag might not be a bad idea!!

And they weigh virtually nothing so you won't notice any extra weight

I always carry a couple of reusable Zippies too, it's amazing how useful they can be.

reusable? Never heard of such a thing, can you post a link? Those would be GREAT for my stupid cadence sensor, among other things...

On centuries or long trail rides, we zip tie a spare tire to the seat post or frame. They are also great for attaching race numbers or maps to the handlebars. Of course, I'm married to a mechanic so we have HUNDREDS (in different lengths and colors)! With a few zip ties and a pocket knife, he could build you a new bike on the side of the trail.

If it's a temporary installation, ust don't cinch them down to tight or they are hard to cut off.
