Hi everyone,
I’ve recently purchased a new bike and I’m curious about its suitability for bikepacking. Set bike: https://www.xxl.no/white-gx-ltd-grx400-22-gravelsykkel-grussykkel-unisex/p/1179896_1_Style
I’d like to get your insights on how well it might hold up for such adventures, particularly in terms of its equipment and any specific areas I should pay attention to. (Mainly riding on paved roads and gravel.)
Additionally, I’m in the process of gathering gear for my bikepacking trips and am wondering which items you believe are worth investing more in and which ones I could potentially save on by choosing more budget-friendly options. I’ve been looking at products from companies like Newboler, which seem to offer decent gear at lower prices.
What are your must-have high-quality items for bikepacking, and what are the items you think one can compromise on without significantly impacting the experience? Any specific product or brand recommendations would also be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance for your advice and suggestions!
