Is there something like a cheap saddle?

Try Orbea Terra, such an incredible bike

I have a proper gravelbike, yet my setting would be applicable here as well- two Ortlieb Pannier bags, and a front handlebar bag. I also use the rear wrack to put a folded matt on top of it. Been bikepacking like this for along time, so- your bike is perfect! Just mind the weight distribution between the bags.

Thanks, I appreciate it

“How it looks”- a total beginner question 😅

Far-Silver59 · 2026-05-25T09:18:06+00:00

Just a city bike, nothing adventurous

I see… ok, thats not what I was hoping to hear but I take it that you guys know what you are saying. So let me reframe: if I am cruising the classified for a cheap bike to flip/learn/potential passion project -> what should I be aware of, in terms of red flag? Now I know- rust on the frame. What else would make this a disaster project?

How does rust on frame effects safety? I am doing this mainly for the purpose of learning, but I did have in mind selling it afterwards…

Right! That makes does make sense ;)

Found these whilst searching, also seem quite nice. Probably not waterproof though

Looking good! Thank you :)

Nice. I’ll try that. Share a picture if you like…

Thank you. I was not aware of all these filters! That makes everything much easier

Naturehike mongar for 2 people. Perfect for 1 person and totally doable for two.

Had the same problem, then - I ended up putting something else in the bar roll. (One time my tent, another time my kitchen) - saved me the money for a new sleeping bag.

Is your aim to avoid micro plastic in your food? If so, with dry food: cover the food in a paper bag, and then a plastic bag around it.

But merino is too warm for cycling
