Blackburn

Affordable and easy to use, but a couple of strange design choices that have lead me to go back to my 15 year old rusty Topeak multi. First, the case is strange and doesn't quite close as well as it could. Second, there is no included phillips bit. Thirdly, and the biggest offense for me, is the decision to make the 3mm and smaller hex keys ball-end. When I'm on the side of the road making an adjustment, I don't need to be worrying whether or not I'm about to round out the 3mm bolts on my Thomson stem. It's a bizarre design choice and I can't think of any situation where I'd prefer ball-end over straight hex, especially in roadside/emergency situations.

Caught this on sale and pulled the trigger. Previously I used a generic off brand waterproof bags on the Blackburn Outpost Cargo Cage and while they did the job, there was room for improvement: ill-sized for the cages and didn't have strap webbing so they were more of a pain to secure. These have a lot of capacity for my use case (suspension fork mounted, bikepacking via MTB), the diameter is a perfect fit for the cages, and the strap webbing makes securing a cinch. Very durable too!

It's a quality pump. Reading the other reviews, I had a similar issue, where it just wouldn't release air fast enough to seat the tires. Then I removed the valve cores and it was perfect. Maybe if you had higher flow cores, you wouldn't need to remove them first. My process is to remove the core, seat the tire. Fill it with air. Then deflate it, add the sealant, the valve core, and then re-inflate. This works perfectly in those steps. I think it is a bit expensive, but you don't need to bring an air compressor to the trails with you.

Needed a bit more storage space on the bike vs in my jersey and this bag did the trick. Wonderful zipper vs the one it is replacing, waterproof looking but not tested, big plus was entire front of bag is reflective but during the day really can't tell like it is. Just the right size for my needs and small enough to be stealthy. Anchor straps are very well done, secure and tidy. Bravos all around and great value for the dollar. Buy this item.
