Re: WTD: drivetrain stuff
Ultegra crank 34 ring is fine the 50 wont hold a chain (.and a new big ring costs about the same as a crank as its asymetric) but a 39 is about £15 new.
Standard 24 mm£25 pretty light as well
172.5 arms 11 speed.

Good work people esp jameso video voiceover
I dont think it requires risk of death or immense suffering ( but it has to be a serious effort with a lot of challenge)

Re: Bike maintenance book recommendations
You can find guides to most things on You Tube. Almost always exactly your exact kit, eg how to bleed your brake rather than generic advice about how to get air out a system and a discussion on mineral via dot. Eg I can bleed brakes but my sram drop bars I still needed a guide. Dont think I would bo...

Re: 650b wheeset query
Free wheels have not changed my pro 2 hope hub has had casettes from 9 to 12 on it.

Re: Spain and the £97 rule
How do you do that if phone is lost stolen Why am I cancelling a card when my phone has been stolen? Lost phone = get a replacement by walking into a shop and buying one and a sim.

Re: Spain and the £97 rule
Who would but is its probably easier to deal with than having your wallet and cards stolen and easier to fix.
My approch would be a joint bank account so someone back home can still deal with or santander and go into a bank there ( will have passport so should get access).

Re: Is this 'bikepacking'?
Because you need a special vbke for each type of riding so gravel rides cannot be done on a flat bar rigid 29er etc.This is actively encouraged by the cycling orientated media outlets and brands

Re: Is this 'bikepacking'?
Bike packing is clearly bike and camping.
Removing one ( camping or bike ) means it cannot be bike packing ( how far you go is irrelevant)
Nothing wrong with touring but its not bikepacking anymore than a sportive is or an enduro race is.
