* Tools and supplies to fix flat tires -- pump, tire levers, patch kit, tire boot. For more details see the article on flat tires on this site. In case you can't find the leak or the inner tube is irrepairable, you might carry a spare inner tube. Replacing the inner tube can be faster than patching, too. | * Tools and supplies to fix flat tires -- pump, tire levers, patch kit, tire boot.

* Multi-tool-- the "Swiss Army knife" of bicycle tools, which includes several metric Allen wrenches (which insert into hexagonal holes in bolt heads), flat-blade and #2 Phillips (cross-head) screwdrivers and often a small socket wrench. The multi-tool provides a single, convenient handle for all of these tools. | * Multi-tool-- the "Swiss Army knife" of bicycle tools, which includes several metric Allen wrenches (which insert into hexagonal holes in bolt heads), flat-blade and #2 Phillips (cross-head) screwdrivers and often a small socket wrench.

* 6-inch adjustable wrench if your bicycle uses nuts and bolts with hex heads -- and to straighten bent parts or lend a helping hand to another cyclist. See Sheldon's article on adjustable wrenches. The adjustable wrench also can remove and replace most pedals -- though many pedals also have an Allen wrench fitting on the inner end of the axle. Keep pedal threads well-greased, because a 6-inch adjustable wrench does not have as much leverage as a purpose-built pedal wrench. | * 6-inch adjustable wrench if your bicycle uses nuts and bolts with hex heads -- and to straighten bent parts or lend a helping hand to another cyclist.
