The Passport Toolkit is a great little solution for carrying your essentials noise-free. It’s not that different from others on the market, so it just comes down to the price, and to be fair it does well there.

It’s a simple idea, like many others out there – basically, a 300ml (also available as 750ml) water bottle with a lid but no liquid, designed to carry your accessories or essentials rather than drinks.
Inside you’ll find a small neoprene bag that stops your stuff from jiggling around and the bottle provides great comfort throughout the kitchen. The lid is a simple knit that stays in place easily.
Overall quality is good. You will get a smoky clear bottle with the passport logo on the outside. This crisps up quickly as you slide it into and out of the bottle cage, but it doesn’t stay fresh for long.

The neoprene bag has a handle to make it easy to get out of the bottle even when wearing gloves. It holds an inner tube and a few tools or tire levers, or if you’re out for a long ride, it can easily swallow a few gels and energy bars.
Price-wise, at £7.99 it’s less than the equivalent six quid. Topeak Escape PodUp to £13.99 from what I tried in 2020, although a neat touch of the Topec is that it has a foam compartment under the cover to make sure nothing vibrates.
A little bigger Vel storage 450ml It doesn’t come with a neoprene bag but it does have foam padding and costs just £5 – and is currently available for £2.50.
It should be noted that a keg of equipment is currently reduced to £4 on the Passport website. Overall, it’s simple and effective, and it’s a bit of a bargain these days.
