I use the adjustable top cap mount. I'm not sure I have a pic of it, but can adjust the angle... costs though £££ that is indeed spendy [ there stuff is mazing but the prices are insane] as i have the cap bit I think I can adapt this to do the same thing [ and i have one for my dynamo light] but st...

Good effort, my winter one would look very very local

It doesn't have to be as many miles as you can physically manage in a day before you crash with hallucinations and minimal stoppage, that's an ITT. I have no interest in that and would crash if I tried but bikepacking is about taking the minimum[TLS] to survive and touring is enough to have a good ...

Think you have strayed into the realms of touring there, personally I dont take a change of clothing or footwear when I go bikepacking*- I dont even have a change of cycling gear[ may have some shorts but very unlikely]. TLS and you wont need to consider a trailer. * i have yet to be refused service...

he picked out 7 spots (two were optional)

I said they were ALL mandatory

Glad you enjoyed it and I have to do mine next week due to kids this weekend so will also post up - i went ambitious with my circle so likely to end up with a similar mileage and hopefully a better nights sleep

Other than a light why would you want to strap anything to your helmet?
It not only makes no sense it actually makes a piece of PPE more dangerous to use

£50 extra for 30 messages is incredibly good value and £150 is a good price
I can see it getting a lot of interest

As noted downside is no tracking

Cheers CM not much louder than previous interactions but not at all quiet

Ta never really ridden there ( well road in and out doing a Lejog)

How technical is the route? I mean how skilled do you need to be to get down stuff. I have a triathlete mate who handily lives in bath who is fit enough but [ insert tri joke here] is in noway shape or from an off road rider or a MTB [ he does not even own one] could lend him one I suppose if MTB ar...

It's surely a fusion of the words bike and camping so you need to camp it's not bikebagging

I don't consider not carrying your gear to be allowable and arriving at a camp site is touring at best
Your thinks being portaged is simply just being soft

. across Scotland grovel ride.

Long days in the saddle apologising to everyone for being a mug dangling fire starter

I think they are banned from ITT's

i45 rims were 45mm

they state the inner diameter

FWIW i use 30 mm rim with + tyres [650 and 29] and its fine[ Phil will disagree massively as more is more ]

5 mm wont matter and i doubt you would even notice

Garmin support are pretty useful so try them [ e-mail them not the forums]

I would guess its something connect or explore that you have to link but never tried [ as our LEJOG route was not set in stone so it was pointless to try this

YGM

Had a non collapsible version when I lived on boat ...pretty crap and you need a mangle as it basically spins ( the 400 r means something at the bottom spins 400 times not your clothes which often don't move and just get agitated water.

I feel.certain a review was required here

My back tyres are higher pressure than front especially bikepacking so does this make it more risky?
Whilst I agree its safer to have rear blowout than a front its a hell of lot of faff trailside with tubeless setup 'Probably would not

For once I might just be with the majority view

nifty mounting option that will attach the thing to a rucksack, bike bag or the bike itself.

Got a link or description as mine is just carabineered to me

He is not wrong though a poor r value for your mat cannot be overcome by a good sleeping bag. I learnt this the cold hard way. Thermarest are the best exped are more competitively priced. I like a sol escape bivvy* to upgrade a bag and it also allows you to get in wet and muddy without having to wor...

Dibs when you sell it Shaf

I like the idea of bit more space than the coffin type 1 person ones but guess that results in more weight Its not camping so you are likely to crawl in , late at night tired, go to sleep wake up and get moving. I doubt I have ever spent more than an hour awake in mine in one camp. Enough space to ...

Are they still obsessed with making their freehubs deliberately noisy ?
Shame as still using an XC hub that must be nearing 20 year old, possibly even more


Spot the quiet freehub fan

The problem with the 15L is that it will rub my rear wheel if not packed exactly right

Fit a mudguard ?

Also Seat post mounted racks - I used on for years - may have it up the attic if you want to try one- probably not that lightweight though
