Today OneUp finally stops teasing us and gives us the full low down on their latest gadget: the EDC. It’s a modular system, so you can utilize either some or all of it. All of the details are below…
[Press Release]
OneUp Components EDC (Everyday Carry)
All the trailside tools you need, always on your bike and instantly accessible.
Given the choice, we’d always prefer to ride without a backpack. But no one wants to be that guy who needs to borrow tools, or be left walking home while your friends enjoy the rest of the ride. We wanted a solution that would allow us to carry the tools that we need for every ride, without wearing a backpack.
EDC stores your essential trail tools inside your steerer tube, right at your fingertips. Whether you’re going out for a quick lunch ride or setting off on a longer adventure, EDC has the tools you need to fix almost any trailside mechanical.
The EDC tool can also be stored inside one of our new high volume CNC Aluminum Pumps with bottle cage mount. Grabbing your EDC tool from the pump is as easy as reaching for your bottle.
EDC TOOL SPEC
Most small backpacks weigh around 1.5lbs (680g) completely empty. The EDC 70cc Pump and Tool weigh less than 0.5lbs (224g) all in. What would you prefer as your Everyday Carry?
EDC PUMP SPEC
PUMP VOLUME
A mini pump might look appealing, but with typical volumes of 30-60cc it will take hundreds of strokes to inflate a new tube and has absolutely no chance of reinflating a tubeless setup. When you get a flat, you want to fix it as fast as possible. At 100cc and 160g our high volume pump has the largest volume to weight ratio on the market.
FAST-ON PUMP HEAD
Firmly push the pump head onto the Presta valve until it bottoms out and then pump. With our fast-on head the valve stem is securely supported so there’s no chance of bending, breaking or unseating the valve and no chance of unscrewing your valve core when you remove the pump.
GEAR STRAP
A stretch polyurethane strap with tail clip for neat and secure fastening of your spare tube to your frame. Our strap doesn’t absorb water and mud like a Velcro strap and won’t scratch your frame.
SUGGESTED SET-UPS
Never flat – EDC Top Cap and EDC Tool with Storage Capsule

OneUp Components Everyday Carry (EDC) Top Cap Install from OneUp Components on Vimeo.
To install the EDC tool in your steerer, remove your old star-nut and tap the top of your steerer tube. This might sound daunting, but we’ve made it easy to do on your bike, without even removing your fork.
The EDC Cap Kit includes the world’s lightest headset top cap (4.2g), and an EDC steerer plug with drain hole, which keeps crud out of your steerer and prevents the EDC tool from rattling.
The EDC Tap kit includes a star nut puller and a self-aligning tap.
