Harness and Pocket with some additional elastic cord to hold my waterproof jacket....jameso wrote:Revelate harness with the pocket strapped round the outside. Meant popping into shops taking any valuables with me was easy if needed.

Older style Revelate kit here, interesting to see how the newer stuff fits together. Like that bungee, could do with something similar.

My Planet X after the Trans Cambrian CX sportive yesterday. After 3 punctures and a split tyre over the 75 miles I know which bike I'll be bringing to BB200 Great fun though!

Arkose Two with BP kit on - a weekend exploring coming up soon I think. Nano Race 40Cs are just brilliant tyres, suprising how much difference they make over the 35C SB8s.Went on tubeless without any bother, a bit loose but the 'seat one side with a tube' trick worked.

What are those tyres like in the wet?
I’ve been abart a bit
Re: Road/CX lightweight bikepackers - let's see 'em
Probably not as good as the 35C Cinder Xs I've used in the past, not sure though as luckily it's not been that muddy since I got my first set this summer. Nanos have never been a great wet/mud tread. But not awful either. Not much about in a more mud-style tread in 40C though. A 42C Saguaro .. now that'd be a great tyre.
