If you’re riding either of Fizik’s Alpaca saddles, the new Alpaca Tool Carrier will discreetly mount a mini tool and two CO2 cartridges underneath. The design makes it easy to stash things under the saddle without having to open a bag, and it won’t interfere with dropper seatposts either!

The mini tool, which really embodies the word “mini”, packs quite a few tools into its diminutive size:

  • Hex Wrenches – 2/2.5/3/4/5/6/8mm
  • Screwdrivers – Phillips/Flat head
  • Torx – t-25/t-10
  • Inflator Head
  • Two reusable zip ties

The CO2 sleeves are removable, so you can run just the tool kit. Retail is $40 (€/£ 40), and it attaches to either the Alpaca Terra & Alpaca Gravita mountain bike saddles.

I have never had a problem with opening a saddle bag to get to tools or tubes, plus it keeps dirt off them versus this type where the tools are open to the elements and no option to carry a tube.

I kind of like that it keeps things from rattling and slightly easier access,. I also like the integrated inflator head.

If you use a dropper post with a FS mtb when you bottom out the suspension the tire will smack into a saddle bag. I’ve had them completely fly off the bike before.

No place for spare tubes and no chain tool. No thank you.

That’s all well and good, but where do you store the spare inner tubes?
