Re: [RBW] Camping bikes
I do like racks and panniers for road tours. I think it works really well. I'm thinking I will add my frame bag for road tours as well since it's great place to add weight. For my off-road tours I've been trying to fine tune my setup. Right now I use a BxB Goldback on the bars, a Porcelain Rocket frame bag and a set of Porcelain Rocket micro panniers on the rear. These are basically slings that hold dry bags. I have used a large Arkel seat bag and like it but felt that small panniers may work better for me. I also have a number of anything cages I can add if needed. I have actually gone back to having racks front and rear on my bikepacking bike. I like them since they make the bike more versatile and my racks have mounts for anything cages on both sides. I don't care much about weight although lighter is better. The racks are worth the weight for me.

Re: [RBW] Camping bikes
CrazyGuyOnABike.com. Complete with hundreds of fotos. That’s a touring site but it takes almost as much stuff on the bike for a night or two as it does for a week or two; S24HO is kind of an exception. Where you are headed will tell you how much food and water you must carry and what will already be there when you arrive. Good luck. -jb On Sun, Apr 19, 2020 at 7:41 PM J L wrote: > Hello all, > > I would love to hear how folks have set up a bike for camping duty. Any > sage advice?
