This weekend i took my first attempt of a setup for a test ride with a overnighter. This was to figure out if it needed any last minute changes before the 14 day tour in less then two weeks.
I tried to put it through its paces, with everything from good forrest roads, to rocky and root filled single track and some climbes with up to 25% gardient. It handled everything decently well, with maybe a few small pain points that will be a easy fix.
I understand that this is probably not a ideal setup, but i tried to stay within 250€, inkluding all of the sleeping gear, so some concession had to be made. However, overall this got me looking forward to the real trip even more.

How did it go?
I couldn’t fathom 25% roads! I did 11-17% hill last week unloaded and I couldn’t imagine 25% loaded.
