Don't like carrying stuff so put most tools, tubes/etc on the bike. Having an issue finding somewhere to store a spare tube, using a water bottle so that really only leaves above the BB, but space is tight there with the shock.

What are you guys using?

And if bringing only one tube for a mullet which is best, I'm assuming a 29" as it can be used on both?

I was thinking 27.5" tube for both. These tubes can be stretched to much greater diameter...
 
I use an enduro strap on the seat rails to hold a tube, leavers and chain splitter pliers.
 
I've tried enduro straps, backpacks, bum bags & nothing at all & none of them really work for me but I especially dislike carting stuff about on my person, so enduro strap or on frame storage.
 
Using Raceface stash tool wrap, tight fit...but it's working. Located on the top tube just before the seatpost.

1x 27.5 tube + Crankbrother M19 multi tool

I had tire levers in the wrap before, but it's not fitting with that frame.

I use a small Osprey hip pack to carry small tools, keys, phone & ETC anyway...as long as you don't put water in it you forget your wearing it.
 
I use a DaKine bag: Hot Laps Gripper Bike Bag
Extra tube, tire irons, CO2 cartridge, and Lezyne inflator.

KOM Cycling Frame Strap.

Maybe it's more expensive than a velcro strap, and maybe it's not even better, but it's definitely cooler.

 
76 projects do some lovely solutions, I use on my HT but not suitable on my Heckler.
