Looking for tire repair kit recommendations (kbin.social)

Hi y’all,

I’m kind of a beginner cyclist and looking for a repair kit for tires on my road bike that I can carry with me. Ideally something that I could connect to the bike.

I used to go to Reddit for this kind of stuff but, well, you know.

Thank you!

I usually outfit my bikes with a bag under the seat which includes all tools for changing a flat and a spare tube if there’s room. Topeak makes a few that come with the tools included but if you have the tools there are plenty of small bags to choose from. Also, don’t forget a frame mounted hand pump (if you’re not using CO2).
