Very small under saddle bag for tools, tubes, patches etc?

[rrarider]

Back in the 1980s, I bough this bag for my bike. It's a bit worn now and the Velcro fixed strap that went over the saddle rails has come off. I would like to replace it with something similar. Such things were common 30 years ago but I can't seem to find one now. Even SJS don't seem to have anything.

Can anyone please tell me where such bags are available these days?

Just look online - there are thousands of bags out there of all shapes and sizes!

I just got a Topeak small aero wedge which holds multitool, tyre levers, spare inner tube and patches, and a small waterproof gilet.

This was my last Pakit bag I now have a Topeak bought in Halfirds. They have a large range. http://www.topeak.com/products/bags. About a 1/3 of the way down.

The Bontrager Pro packs are good, cost around £12-15, have a rock steady 3 point velcro fastening, so nice and toight. Fully waterproof, and enough room for everything you could have got in your packit. Mine will take a tube, a full patch kit, a CO2 inflation system, money and keys, with room to spare.

Scott do good ones.

Carradice Classic Alston? Not cheap at £40, though.

A very small drybag might be an alternative? Starts from £4 for 1 litre, but you'd need a strap for either the rails or the seatpost (whichever you didn't clip it to).

Snap! I also had one of these on my Falcon. I think I've owned the same lock as you've got there too.

I can heartily recommend the Topeak range of 'wedges'. Excellent products and great value too. Go for the ones that use the 'F25 Fixer' rather than the all-velcro models.

I've got a topeak aero wedge in the small size, it has plenty of space for 2x tubes, multitool, levers, 3 CO2 containers and inflator, puncture repair kit (patches, glue, etc).

I've also been looking for a larger size unit for day long rides, been looking at Alpkit stuff, as well as blackburn and ortlieb saddle bags, but I think the latter two are probably too large for what you are looking for.

As @Goggs said, the topeak bags with the quick release clip are great.

I got a spare f25 bracket to swap bag to No.2 bike.

+1 for Topeak

+1 for Pakit tool pouch nostalgia

My most recent purchase was a Scicon Hipo 550 which I'm not sure is still available.
I was most impressed with the integrated tyre levers which I found to work very well

This one seems similar

I had my my Topeak wedge & bar bag mounts on my last bike when it got nicked. I've managed to replace the F8 front mount but can't source an F25 in France for the life of me. Anyone else is charging so much for postage I might as well re-purchase the wedge bag whilst I'm at it.

Aldi do them for a fiver, complete with multitool, levers and sticky patches, and I daresay Lidl do. Asda do, and Decathlon. Wiggle, CRC, Evans and any bike shop will have some.
