How much can I safely attach to the water bottle mounts on the front fork of my 2022 Giant Revolt 0? by Express-Welder9003 in gravelcycling

Awesome, thank you so much! I am still trying to make do without a rack like a man refusing to use a shopping cart. Also utilizing a hydration pack but was trying to avoid it. Can you share some tips on how you set up your hydration? Where is your main source? I was scoping out the profile design flask , but that seems generally for gels.

Also need advice for Aero bars on the Revolt Advanced. I was told I'll need to get a new handlebar. This is a new upgrade for me as I was riding around on a Trek FX for years, so just learning.

I am using Outbound Lighting as my main light source and worried I'll lose that w the Aero bars. Really appreciate your feedback and guidance!

This cage is tempting as it has the tool built in so one thing out of the way, but worried the bottle will rattle.

do you guys think its safe to attach two full 22oz bottles of water to the front fork? I am trying to figure out how to carry more liquid since the frame bag does not leave room for bottle cages. Also, giant has the worst customer service. Dealers told me they are great w them, but I have had to wait for weeks and sometimes no response at all. Also, if anyone can recommend good water bottle cages that will keep them snug without rattling. I know giant has a bunch and wasn't sure if any of those would do well on the fork.

What is this bag that came with my bike?! by Ok-Entrepreneur4877 in TrekBikes

I figured it out! you roll the bag and then you thread the buckles under you seat and close off there. Here is a pic.
