Pocket carry case and sheath
on: July 07, 2018, 11:00:52 PM
I've got a Topeak Rocket Lite case where I've basically swapped out the bike tools and used the case for my own set-up.  It's slim and easily pocketable.





And I've started using my LM Wave pouch again.

I’ve been thinking of doing the same thing!!! By any chance could we get pics of it in pocket? I work in an office so I’ve been holding back as it’s biz casual. Good stuff.

I presume you asking about the the Topeak case?  Here's some pics next to the LM sheath.

Both are about the same size in height and width.


The LM sheath with Wave, one LM bit kit, and a Pocket Wrench 2 is a bit fatter.  But I did squeeze in a Wera Kraftform (813R) screwdriver bit holder, LM Squirt and some other items, into the Topeak case, so if you had thinner/fewer tools you needed to carry you might get the Topeak slimmer.


Top view.


Here's the Topeak going into the front pocket.



And down into the front pocket.



And back pocket carry.



The LM sheath and kit is fatter and isn't discrete in pocket.

The Topeak ratchet that comes with the case is actually very nice (and small).  It takes LM flat bits without them slipping through the hole in the ratchet, so the ratchet got  'promoted' to my Wave kit.  So instead of the ratchet I have a the Wera hex bit screwdriver for this kit --- tightening up the pivots on modded Juice/Wave, rewiring a plug, small tasks around the home, etc.  I used a Dremel to remove the plastic piece that the ratchet clips into, to let me slip a hex bit extender into the loop of material (with the redundant hex bit sizes --- I replaced the bits with a selection I prefer).  It's a tight squeeze, to get the Wera driver and LM Squirt into the elasticated band.

Didn't someone have a case for some type of fisherman's multitool, posted a few months back?  I remember thinking I'd like one of those cases/sheaths, as it had a nice way to keep hex bits.

Also, with a bit of elastic webbing you can make up your own .... this is wrapped around a store card
