I'm trying to cut down pack size (always am) for my cycling this summer - if you can think you can pack light try packing with this kind of setup including camping gear, food and cooking:

etc....

I've now got refillable pens and so currently have a Clikstar pen for Lantus and novopen 5 for novorapid. I aim to take 1 of each pen and 2 spare vials of each. Will this fit in the duo wallet?. I'm pretty sure that I could fit 1 pen + 2 vials in the single one, so would it be less space taking that if the duo doesn't fit it all?

I'm not sure if duo is big enough. When I was travelling I had extra large and managed to pack 10 pens. What about this one http://www.friouk.com/shop/medical/viva-zipper-wallet.aspx Seems to be a bit larger but not massive
 
I take an individual pen wallet for my Quick acting when I'm out and about and a Duo wallet for my basal pen and 2 spare cartridges which I generally leave in my room.
 
Don't know if it will be any help but large Tescos have the Frio packs, wallets etc. My local Tesco Extra has a very large display. Seeing the actual sizes on offer might help you decide which suits you best. Not suggesting you buy one form Tesco :)
