I'm riding the Grail CF SLX 8 AXS and plan on going on a bikepacking tour in the mountains. Roads and gravel. I'm not sure if I'll be sleeping in a hammock / tent or in hotels or hostels or so, as that's a little weather dependent, but I'd prefer sleeping outside.
I'm a little unexperienced with bike repair. I know how to fix punctures swap chains etc., but since this bike is new and I'm not so knowledgeable about the sheer amount of repair and maintenance tools Canyon offers on their website, I'd like to know what you guys would recommend (or not).
I'm pretty sure on the Load Tool Pack, but exactly not what to put in there.
Possibly the micro rocket carbon pump, the 3-in-1 minitool and the quickloader pack.
Is the tire lever any good?
What else do you take with you?

Depends where you are and where you are going, I would watch [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRmDObGV65Q&list=PLoztS6so-28mELtsF9NNUtbFWFVpuEbUd&ab_channel=ChrisHall) video if I were you.
My recommendation would be is to create a route that is an hour or 2 longer than your normal ride and book a hotel or some sort. Get familiar with your bags and stuff before you go all out into the wildlife with tents, hammocks and what not. Unless you go with someone that’s more experienced.
