What do y'all think of my bikepacking rig?

She's a 2018 Surly Troll.. here's the build list …

I've got a Shimano XT M-8000 2×11 speed drivetrain on it with 38-24t chainrings, 11-42t cassette, Microshift thumbies, Avid BB7 brakes, Hayes levers, Crank Brothers Stamp 7 pedals, Halo Ridgeline 32h 27.5 boost wheelset & hubs, tubeless Surly Extraterrestrial 27.5×2.5 tires, Moloko bars, Thomson stem, Brooks Cambium C17 saddle, Velo Orange seatpost, Racktime Topit front rack, Salsa anything fork cages, Revalate frame bag, custom Randi Jo Fabrications Jeff n Joan's bar bag & big mut fork bags, REI top tube bag, Topeak saddle bag, Profile Design seatpost mount dual water bottle cages, Jagwire compressionless cable housings, Cane Creek 110 headset.

I also installed a Surly Dinner fork for a Grappler on it, so now it's got a 15x110mm ta boost front hub to go along with the 12x148mm ta boost rear hub.

I'm planning to build a stronger wheelset for it soon… but, I got this set on Craigslist for $120 and they were brand new, so I couldn't pass them up!!

What'd you do different??

I've got a few thousand miles on the build, so far, and it's been super rugged & reliable. Just curious what ideas y'all might have to make it even more reliable!!

Thank you!! 🙂
