Put the tube inside an old sock and put the tools in another old sock. Cut off any excess. That way they will not rub and wear holes in the tube. A paper clip works as a perfect replacement. Tie wraps are used to hold broken pieces in place long enough to finish the ride.
Tape has many uses.
Holds broken pieces in place long enough to finish the ride. Some riders wrap some duct tape on the seat post or elsewhere on the frame. Rubber bands are for the same reason. The piece of skinwall from an old tire is used to make a temporary patch for a cut in the tire. Not unusual to find the tube bulging out of a cut in the sidewall.
