Tool roll

[sdr]

Right now, tools that travel with me live in a small bag. Everything in one little bag suffices, but I recently came across a guys kit that had a perfect little tool roll that I could see making life on the bike just a wee bit nicer. Unfortunately, that particular tool roll was a prototype that never went into production. 

Been searching all over for something similar but coming up empty. Anybody using/know of a nice, lightweight, compact tool roll that is in production and available to purchase?

Etsy has several options - I just recently found one by a big named brand, but can't remember which brand.

Road Runner makes one with an additional snap closure. A spare tube 2.25" tube is a tight squeeze, for sure, but so far, so good.

 IMO, I wouldn't ride rough stuff without a snap/closure anymore. I've had too many tools, levers bounce out of my conventional tool rolls during off road rides.

Thanks for all the input. I did finally order a Blackburn Outpost tool wrap. Give a go for a few rides and see how it works out.

I see the OP already got a tool roll, but wanted to chime in. I use my father's old field surgery kit as a tool roll. You can get them on ebay for about $30 (including surgical tools). I kept some of the surgery items like a hemostat and some poker-type tools since they seemed useful. Otherwise, I stuffed a good deal of my bike-specific tools in there, too.

For the last 10 yrs or so I've been using a travel wallet as a tool holder.  Sort of like the one linked below but no pockets for credit cards.  Works perfect for me - tiny bits go in the smaller zip pocket, everything else in the larger zip pocket.  It lives in the outside compartment of my pack for easy access.

I still use a roll called the Topeak Tool Sausage. It came with me on my ride today, in fact.

It's not just cheek-ily named. It's meant to hide in the tube of an old Topeak beam-style rack.

It has a good assortment of tools and it can roll around spare spokes if I decided to take it on a tour, plus the roll has a hook and a velcro strip to hang it off of a rack while you work on the bike. Kinda nice.
