Top Tube Bag

[Mallory]

I currently use a large topeak saddle bag on my hybrid but with the mornings 5.45am starting to be a little darker I need to loose this so I can install my rear light.

I've been looking at either getting a top tube bag or a larger rucksack. Personally id rather not have the extra weight on my back so a top tube bag is more preferable.

Ideally it needs to hold 1 or 2 tubes, multi tool kit, a few tyre levers and a 1st aid kit.

My winter front lights are powered by a battery pack so if i could fit this inside as well that would be ideal.

The topeak large fuel bags looks good but wondered if anyone here uses one and has any feedback on them or a similar item.

I put 4 old sunglasses cases the type you get with the cheap riding glasses in aldi on a belt and get everything including the mobile phone in them. The only extra weight is the stuff I put in them and you don`t feel like you are carrying anything.

This is what I use, can fit pretty much an entire workshop (or at least every tool you could think of for road side repair such as multi-tools, spanner etc.), spare inner-tubes, CO2 cartridges, phone plus more in it easily.
