Tools, mounts and carry gear for scooter and e-bike commuting

A phone mount, a repair tool, a cargo net, a cup holder and side lights: the small accessories that make a scooter or e-bike commute work.

The quick answer

Add a phone mount for navigation, a compact repair tool for roadside adjustments, a cargo net for light loads, a cup holder for drinks and lights for side visibility. Check handlebar and tube diameters before buying any mount.

A small repair kit

A folding multi-tool with Allen keys, wrenches and tire levers covers most roadside adjustments. Check the sizes against your own fasteners, and carry a pump and patches for flats.

Carry a light load

An elastic cargo net holds a helmet, bag or small box. Keep loads light and clear of lights, brakes and the folding mechanism, and use a rack or basket for heavier items.

Drinks and visibility

A swivel cup holder keeps a bottle within reach, and adhesive LED strips add side visibility. They do not replace a headlight and rear light.
