After some ideas for storage option on my frame, I’m not a fan of the Dakine wrap round the frame tool storage bag as it moves all over the place so thinking is there an effective bottle cage which will house the bottle and a bit of storage for tyre levers, inner tube, Co2, Allen keys

any recommendations?

Lezyne and Topeak make bottle cages with attached tool storage.

Inner tube can be strapped/taped under your saddle.

I have an Elite one and a Topeak one. Slightly different designs but both good.

I use one for keeping all my tools and a cafe lock

Granite do this addition to a bottle cage that you can store tools on

and huck do a mini drybag that may fit it to stop your tools getting manky.

If you have space behind the bottle mounts then this works well:

I've got a couple of those Huck bags. I cut off the rolltop buckle because it's quite bulky. Paper aeroplane/fancy hotel toilet paper fold in the top and a couple of folds in and over, lacky band from an inner tube to keep it tidy, then a voile type strap keeping it tight to the saddle rails.

Stays put much better than the Dakine Hot Laps Gripper I had before (I tried that in a few places on the frame and settled with it under the saddle), easier to swap from bike to bike and easier to keep away from the dropper stanchion - Fox post bolt kept the Dakine away anyway, One-Up needed a little bodgery. Huck bag and voile strap is smaller, neater and tighter and stays off anyway.
