Pros
- A unique system with complementary parts that functionality can be added as requirements change. For example, going from clincher to tubular, just change the bag. Want a second water bottle? No problem, just add another cage. Want to carry 3 CO2 cartridges instead of 2, no problem just screw in a third one. Want to carry a micro hand pump in addition to your CO2 system, with the NINJA P pump, just snap it in!
Cons

TOPEAK TRI BACKUP PRO 1 REAR HYDRATION MULTI MOUNT SYSTEM
Here is a great set of stocking stuffers! The main unit that holds all of the pieces is called the Tri-Backup Pro 1 Rear Hydration Multi Mount System. From here, you can attach water bottle(s), a mini-pump, CO2 pump head and CO2 cartridges and a tube or tire bag. Lots of different configurations to allow for your custom application.
I have also included links below to Amazon is you are interested in picking up any of these modules. The design and build quality is A+ !
I highly recommend this platform for any Triathlete, TT bike and even Aero Road bike. This system has it all!

NINJA P MINI PUMP
DESCRIPTION:
The super-light Ninja pump hides inside your seatpost, or, snaps onto the TRI-BACKUP AIR STATION.
Although it’s more aerodynamic, storing inside your seatpost will require you to remove the seatpost from the seat tube any time you need to access the pump. In my opinion, snap it onto the Tri-Backup Air Station for much easier access. But, if you do want to store it inside your seatpost, it includes 2 expandable rubber rings to secures the pump inside the post. Just mark your seat post height first with a permanent marker.
• USAGE: ROAD

SUMMARY:
There you have it. A high-quality system to carry your water bottle(s) and tire changing equipment all in one simply designed system.
