Even for cyclists who aren’t professed weight weenies, we all seem to like cutting grams where we can. In spite of the attention bike components receive for their weight, often the accessories we bring with us on the ride get a free pass. Seeing as how many riders are shocked to find out how much their bike actually weighs once it hits the road, if you care about the grams on your bike, you should care about the grams of your ride kit.
That goes for your flat kit too. And if you wrap your flat kit up in one of the many popular tool rools on the market, that wrap should be subject to the scale as well. Always looking for the next way to reinvent the tool wrap, JET Roll is back a it with what has to be one of, if not the lightest tool wrap on the market…
Following the JET roll pattern, the Hypersonic X-15 uses a super thin and strong material for the wrap’s ‘skin’ but eliminates the two button closure found on the standard Hypersonic. That gives it a total weight of 12g (+/- 5g) without the strap. Sold with a lightweight nylon toe strap with a metal buckle, the wrap also includes two JET Roll Tube bands which are useful for keeping inner tubes compact, or for even wrapping around the tool roll when it’s in your jersey pocket. Offered in Vapor White with matte black detail and neon orange or yellow stitching, Hypersonic X-15 wraps are available for $50.
