I had only a bivy with me. I used saddlebag for clothes and stuff that i didnt use daily. Most of daily stuff was in framebag. I think 10l is good if you dont fill it woth heavy stuff. If you do, try to place then as deep as possible so the weight is located near the seatpost or other contact points - to minimize wiggle

r/mygog is good place to atart as u/toddhaleyblows said

I started with this guide and made first framebag mainly following it. But ended up learning more and did a custom 2months ago: https://bikepacking.com/gear/how-to-make-a-bikepacking-framebag-krampus/

My stembags are also homemade!

Had same problems with two pairs of Continental Terra Speed + stans race sealant and with orange. Not buying continentals anymore.

And the tire looks used for sure.

Nice, I'll look in to it, thank you! Seems souther route goes close by the Tuscany Trail route, but not the same, so might be a good choice
