Hello fellow cyclists,
Ive been pondering over an intriguing question regarding bikepacking gear. As we all know, the art of bikepacking involves a delicate balance between carrying whats necessary and keeping the weight to a minimum. However, Im curious to know what strategies you all employ when it comes to prioritizing what gear is truly essential versus what can be left behind to save weight?
Do you have a specific system or checklist that you follow when packing for a bikepacking trip? How do you determine the importance of each item, and what factors do you consider when making the decision to include or exclude it from your gear?
Im particularly interested in hearing about any experiences where youve had to make tough choices between weight and necessity, and how those decisions impacted your trip. Lets share our insights and learn from each others experiences!
Looking forward to some enlightening discussions.
Best,
Vuce
