I normally plan and decide my trips maximum a day in advance. So I decided to make a small tour for a week or smthng, I will be wild camping. And I built this setup today, (yeah from scratch, bought everything today 😂).
If you guys have any suggestions I would be happy.
The equipment I bought today, I dont remember some prices but 😅
-Pro discover 15L saddle bag (50€)
-Pro discover frame bag 8L(40€)
-Decathlon trek mt900 ultralight one person tent, 1.3kg 4.2L (150€)
-2 bottle, holders, and fork mount total (25€)
-riverside frame bag (13€)
-decathlon mt500 air mattress 1.7L 550gr (50€)
-sleeping bag decathlon (30€)
-phone holder decathlon
With all of this I think my ultralight setup is totally enough. But any suggestion from you experienced guys would be nice.

Love it! I used to have a bottle where your top tube bag is. If you haven’t done so already, try to get off the bike and see if that bag is in your way somehow.
Love your bike, there aren’t enough blue bikes in the world!
You should have no issue coming to a stop on the nice clean laminate flooring . I’d suggest you don’t incude the bathroom in your loop, bath tiles can be slippy even when dry .
Looks awesome! I’m only wondering if the seatbag with the sleepingbag on top won’t sag and hit your rearwheel.
reckon even road cycling would see your sleeping bag become a bit of an issue over time, also the bag doesnt look water resistant … gut feel, u might have to much stuff..
Looks good! I wonder if you’ll settle on moving the top tube bag forward, so you can access it while straddling the top tube from a stop, but if you like it right in front of your saddle, keep it there!
not sure how the temperatures in your area are, but a 30€ sleeping bag is probably not very warm, maybe set up your tent in your garden or somewhere and see how the night is. on my trips i realized that good sleep is probably one of the most important things
Is your sleeping bag waterproof in the stuff sac? A wet sleeping bag is not a pleasant experience.
Are you able to grab a bottle while riding? Seems like the frame bag is in the way of the bottle cages unless they are the side loading kind.
Maybe add some stem/bar mounted feed/bottle bags? Something like this: https://eu.restrap.com/products/stem-bag
I had no idea Pugeot still made bikes
If it is a carbon bike please put some gorilla tape where the bag straps meet the carbon frame. In time from dust and dirt it will rub on the frame.
I don’t love the location of the sleeping bag. I worry it would slip or swing while riding. I tend to be on the minimalist side after a few bad experiences of unsecured loads. YMMV!
