Yeah man, I do it before I drop into bobsled!
No I don't usually keep one in my pack. But when I am guiding, travelling w/bike, or doing shuttle days there's usually one nearby. It's never for my bike, but someone inevitably has a janky setup. I once rented a bike in Zermatt that needed a brake bleed, shifting adjustment, and wheel true before I went out. The rental shop said the bike was in perfect shape so I did it right outside their shop. You can bet they weren't stoked, but for that price and the shitty service I received I really could care less. I would have detonated that bike in the condition they rented it to me and it came back better than when I took it out.
