This new Fix Mfg Payload Pocket is a tiny bracket that deserves a little shout-out, for its new on-the-bike mount. Fix Manufacturings compact wearable EveryDay Carry multi-tools are already a great option for folks like me who love to be able to work on stuff anytime, anywhere.

Fix Mfg Payload Pocket on-bike mount for EDC multi-toolsThe new Fix Payload Pocket is a simple 64mm mount for their wide array of compact multi-tools. There are 4 different bike-specific tools, plus snow & surf tools that all fit into the new carrier. In fact, Payload Pocket had previously just been the name for all of their different mounts that would hold these small rectangular mini-tools.As a bike tech nerd, Im partial to Fixs $50 Wheelie Wrench X Dynaplug tucked inside an All Time Belt. That means whenever I am wearing a belt and whenever I travel I have a multi-tool tucked into my belt buckle. That specific multi-tool has all the bike fix basics, plus a Dynaplug tubeless tire plug pre-loaded and ready to go. I also have a $55 Wheelie Wrench Pro that includes a 8mm hex to remove pedals and a chain breaker. (But it doesnt fit in my belt buckle.) That one I have attached to a backpack strap with the Strap-On Tool Holster. Oddly, until now, there wasnt a way to carry either on the bike. But now, Fix fixed that, too!Details, Pricing & OptionsThe new Fix Payload Pocket is a simple black bracket that direct mounts to your bike. It is drilled with two holes 64mm apart to fit on standard bottle carrier bosses or the extra tool mounts on more and more mountain bikes. It uses the exact same alloy & composite clip as Fixs other holsters to securely hold tools in place. The Payload Pocket itself sells for $33, including black titanium bolts from Better Bolts.Compatible Fix Manufacturing tools start at $35 more for the basic Wheelie Wrench. Or $45 for the Wheelie Whip with a chain tool, and they top out at $80 for the Wheelie Wrench Pro x Dynaplug Hans Rey Edition.
