you could VERY easily modify one to carry a glueless patch, as long as the patch is the size of a 2032 battery.
however, knog is a really cool company with awesome designs and the knog BOOMER is DEFINITELY going to be my next non-component/metal attachment bike purchase.
i need a streamliner road DLX for my road bike first.
