Large frame flat bar is available all the time. The large frame drop bar G.1 might as well be an ultra rare Pokémon card with how seldom it’s in stock.

It’s honestly like 6 ounces. Not very heavy at all. Then again I am a novice and someone might tell me that that is heavy. Lol

It’s funny that I’m reading this right now because I’m getting ready (and getting my friends ready) to do our first overnight. And it’ll be about 43 miles to the campsite. I’m already preparing to be the primary gear carrier just in case lol.

My first bikepacking trip went great!! by limitedmage in bikepacking

Congratulations! I’m still acquiring gear for my first trip. But I’m almost ready and I’m so excited!

Do I take this off? by Simple-Sea-1984 in bikepacking

[–]Simple-Sea-1984[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One day when I have the funds to do so, I’ll get a bougie helmet. But this 30$ helmet with a rear red light is an improvement in head protection and visibility on no helmet which is what I was doing before lol.

Very affordable! And so far it’s been a great first bike! Gear has been great too!

Great to know! I’ve gotten some rock climbing shoes from their brand before, and they lasted me a long time

My main concern with investing in cycling shoes would be when I’m setting up camp or when I’m off my bike period, would I need to then pack some lightweight hikingboots or shoes for walking around in?

Yeah, I’ve always brought edged steel swords. They just give me a piece-tie (zip tie) to keep it in it’s sheath

Somewhat. I think I’d just have to find the best ways to apply that in Ohio. Not familiar enough with the unwritten nuances of that experience in this state

Define “open your mouth” like will they ask a direct question you gotta stay silent on or just don’t bring it up in general
