Agreed. How many tools to you need to carry, really? I've got a tool bag I can barely lift that contains all of the tools, and many of the spare parts, necessary to build a bike from the frame up. On tour? I leave most of that stuff at home! I carry enough tools to rescue myself from an inconvenience or mild disaster, but assume that if anything truly major happens I'll need to hitch a ride to a bike shop.
