That's totally insufficient for all the necessary things I put in my bag like:
a magazine (when waiting for a ride after a breakdown)
Pringles (mid-ride snack)
pepper spray (unleashed dogs and children)
taser (muggers)
spare Confederate Flag jersey (when riding in rural areas)
spare Obama jersey (when riding in urban areas)
razor (for mid-ride shaves...I grow fast)

If I may ....that's funny,I do not wear a cycling jersey nor do I want to have 10lbs of crap dragging down my lower back, I use a small bag wit a dollar in it, a tube but no air nor tool to change a tire

It doesn't weigh much at all really. I carry a tube, two very light levers, sticky patches, and a CO2 cartridge with the small head. But if you don't wear a cycling jersey, it won't work.

Cool idea. I Velcro my tire lever to the underside of my saddle, then have a small dangle bag with a tube and CO2. I may try something like this to stash the CO2.

I have an extra and came through Hampton from the beach last weekend. I see you're a pilot. I could have just handed it off from my sunroof going along I-64
