An added bonus of the Hi Flow design is that airflow through the valve increases significantly, making pumping up your tyres more efficient; this was noticeably easier even when using a standard hand pump. More and more manufacturers are adding extra bosses to their bikes which the Little Piggy can bolt to.

the zip and bag is made of hard wearing and waterproof material and despite many soakings, mud and jet washes it’s remained dry inside. Extra-wide brackets are available for widths 90mm to 130mm bars centre to centre (68-108mm inside to inside). Before launching a product it undergoes rigorous testing by 76 projects, podium bothering racers, daily commuters, and weekend warriors. A 'no-turn' computer insert is now standard and can be easily configured to suit almost any set-up and extensions. This provides a forward-thinking solution to the annoyingly common problem of clogged-up tubeless valves.So you’ll need a minimum of one inner tube, a tyre lever to get the tyre bead off one side of the rim, might as well combine that with a multi-tool to save weight and space and a tubeless repair kit to try and plug the hole in the tyre before hand when you go out on a regular ride.

A great example is their Micro Piggy, a storage solution originally designed for full-suspension riders to carry an extra tube. Just be sure to keep the provided valve cap on during your rides to prevent the head of the valve core from falling off, as it does unthread all the way, whereas a typical Presta valve core head stops at the end of the thread and can't come off. However, we are always looking for new storage solutions for our adventure rigs, we decided to test the Micro Piggy through the lens of bikepacking. For those of us who use frame bags for bikepacking, finding a good spot for the Micro Piggy may prove to be tricky.

The in-house industrial 3D printing capability and capacity will add value to the business with the control that it brings, but one single manufacturing process will never meet all of the company’s manufacturing requirements. This version uses a 3M tape that has stuck fast through all the riding, weather and loads I have put on it. So that’s on the top tube, under the down tube, on the fork leg and even in the traditional bottle position. It’s a big investment, however, one that they took seriously to support the production of large part prototypes for use in wind tunnel testing for some key clients. The instructions that come with the mount are easy to follow and there’s some adjustability for the placing of the holder.
