Cool will watch this later
When i started watching this i said no way he doing a bikepacking setup with all that gear for sure a traditional cycle touring setup .. i was half right lol .. tip pack first with water a food in minded then gear arround that food and water space is the most import.. that was my big mistake when i got into bikepacking 15 years ago .. now i pack with food in mind i can carry 10 days food and max 14 litres of water
Ps take pedals off and deflate wheels protect the rear gears and brake pads
