A couple years ago, no tools 😅. I was commuting between home and campus just a mile away, so if something went wrong I’d just lock the bike and come for it later.
Nowadays, just a few to do an inner tube & chain replacement, and some other small bits that might come in handy.
- 2 spanners (one adjustable)
- Backup lights & head torch
- Tyre levers & adhesive puncture patches
- Mini track-style pump
- Screwdriver for the chain enclosure
- Pliers for the rollerbrakes and internal hub gear cables

I’ve found the head torch to be surprisingly helpful… Had a puncture in the dark once, and without that I would have been there a while lol
A knife, folding saw, pump, patch kit, tire levers, hex keys, screw driver and a bit kit, chain breaker, inner tube, masterlinks, duct tape, zip ties, pruning shears, flashlight, head torch, a lighter, water filter …
I’m probably forgeting some stuff too
