I have two evoc packs. I've used them for all my bikepacking trips for the last couple of years, you can even squeeze a tent inside!

I really like the steel gravel bike linked above. Right size for me too. Really don't need another bike though

I ordered this one https://rockrun.com/collections/mountai ... a-spark-32

I’ve seen one of this range in person before. They are really nicely made and feel soft/comfy. I’ll feed back more details though.

MAM Are the specs for that listed on Millets correct? Just wondering if it's a different model mislabelled as Ultralght outdoor GB are selling it for £140 with a rrp of £150. If it's the same as that I think I'll jump for one.Ta

Looks like a good deal, only thing not included over the (much) more expensive optionsis the Schnozzle bag. Thanks for posting it up.

That model was frequently available between £65 and £75 a couple of years ago - seems that when they changed it to include the schnozzle they added about £30 to the base price
