7 Bikepacking Upgrades I Loved (and a 6 lb Mistake)

Описание: I just finished riding from Vienna to Passau, hauling all my bikepacking gear with me — and wow, I learned a lot about what to pack (and what NOT to).

In this video, I break down 7 upgrades I loved — from my Rogue Panda frame bag to my Nemo sleep setup — plus the 6 lb mistake that made my handlebars feel like a bowling ball. If you’re planning your own bikepacking trip, this is what worked, what didn’t, and what I’d change next time.

This isn’t a weight-weenie gear list. It’s the little choices — like a sun shirt that saved my skin, a rack that saved my bag, and a flashlight that beat a bulky headlamp. And yes, I’ll show you the extra “just in case” junk I should’ve left at home.
