My pink basket, I've saved more than it cost by being able to cycle to the cheaper shops and load up!

I love my tardis-like basket. I think it cost me about £50 for it and the fitting but I've totally got my moneys worth out of it over the last two years and it can carry a ton of shopping.

Probably the £2.50 waterproof phone sleeve that keeps my iPhone nice and safe whilst allowing me to take calls and use the touchscreen (when stopped at the roadside mind you...)

In terms of actual accessories I'd agree - workstand is right up there.
If you include overall bike spending the £9 download of Wheelpro book on wheelbuilding beats everything else.

It has to be my Carradice SQR Tour saddlebag, its been so useful. My tools and spares take up the side pockets and the huge main compartment fits spare clothes or shopping or if im stripping my bike to lock it up - my helmet, gloves, magicshine, computer, lights or a full pack of 12/15 cans of beer. :cheers:

Track pump is a close second though, its forever being borrowed :smile:

Yes, another for my Track pump - has saved not only bags of time, but my sanity as well!

I think my Topeak multitool with its tyre levers! hex keys and chain tool.
+1 love this little beaut! it has everything you need and is light and takes up very little room.
honourable mention to my altura panniers without which my commute would be awkward to say the least juggling all my junk.
