bite Packing Tips for beginners one choose the right bags for a typical bite packing setup you don’t normally take paniers because of that the bags are strapped to your frame therefore make sure they fit your frame and are safe and secure two weight distribution you want heavier items lower down and more towards the center so think frame bags at the bottom half are your fork bags three specified wet and dry bags for instance the sleeping gear on my handlebar bag nothing that goes in there can be wet whereas my camping for bag which includes my tent can contain wet items I keep these separate to make sure but stuff that needs to be dry stays dry four accessibility the final thing you need to do is to make sure that things you need access to quickly are easily accessible so your phone snacks GPS more snacks will all be in your top tube bags or for example your rain gear might be at the top of your for bags and five practice packing once you’ve thought through all of the above practice packing all of your bags maybe weigh out some of the gear and make sure it’s evenly spaced all that good stuff once you got the bike packed last thing to do is go for a test ride but I’ll save that for another video good luck
