Water Bottle to hold tube, tools, etc.

Maybe someone else know what I am talking about but I saw something at my LBS that looked like it was designed for what you are looking for but was not a water bottle.  Had a pop open lid with plenty of room inside.

You can get something like this: Trek Waterbottle Softshell Pack

x2  never had a problem fitting things in . put i just had an extra tube, levers, adn two co2's with the inflator 

I use a Cage Rocket from Nashbar. I've had it for a couple years and it works great!!

I used to always ride with this setup - crammed into a standard size bottle: tube, inflator w/2 cartiges, glueless patch kit, tire levers, small mulittool, small roll of electrical tape, $20 bill, and was able to screw the top on fine.

a $0.05 zip lock bag makes anything "waterproof"

I've found that those flavored vitamin-water bottles work perfectly for just such a purpose.  Just remove label, cut off the top, and you've got a clear container that fits 2 tubes, 2 CO2's, patches, 2 levers, cash and keys.

 

Hey, sounds like a good idea.  And since you won't be able to use that water cage to carry water, you can use this to put your water bottle in:

I have a HydroTail on my new bike with three (yes, three) cages, and I use the rear one to hold a standard water bottle with my repair stuff in it.

I just came back from a trip to California, and having the bottle worked well because I just threw it in one of the two cages on the bike I rented.
