Hi folks . Currently have one water bottle and cage on my bike and have a mini pump on the other bolts . I see lots of bikes have 2 water bottles attached but no pumps .
So if you have 2water bottles where do you keep your pump or do you just not take one ?

My pump goes in the pouch on my pannier along with tools, p.. repair kit,lock etc..
Regardless of which bike I use I always take the panniers so always have my pump.

Yep, same as many others here, my mini pump sits alongside the bottle on the downtube. The mount is fitted underneath the bottle cage using the same bolts.

I keep mine in my frame bag on my Trek, it fits nicely. I know the rule is jersey pocket, but I've an aversion to anything like that in a pocket i might fall on, on one of my other bikes my pump is in the other proper place , which is down the left hand seat stay.:okay:

Word of warning. I've lost 2 pumps that were on the frame like this in the last 6 months. Not sure if they fell off or were nicked, as I never take the pump with me when I leave the bike locked up.

[QUOTE 4903697, member: 9609"]presumably it doest stick out any further sideways than the bottle ?
nice and neat way to do it proving you don't catch it with your legs.[/QUOTE]
Correct, it's not even visible from above... I forget it's there to be honest.
