| Sep 28, 2020 at 17:27 | comment | added | LemmyX | @WarrenBurton Yes, I do something similar. I have a fairly low end bike with minimal components so it's already pretty light. I currently have no need for a shock pump because I run SR Suntour springs in my fork, but otherwise I still carry a lot of stuff. Carrying a shock pump is the one thing I'm worried about for when I get my new bike, but that's far in the future. | |
| Sep 28, 2020 at 16:07 | comment | added | Warren Burton | @LemmyX The amount you carry is up to you :-) . Like you I carry most everything all the time (spare hanger, shock pump, donuts etc ) . My philosophy has always been that I want the weight off the bike and on my back. A light bike is agile. Theres never a bad day on a bike. | |

| Sep 28, 2020 at 13:12 | comment | added | LemmyX | @WarrenBurton 20 lbs was a guess, but it seems pretty close to me. It's 15 at least. I carry a lot of extra stuff with me. | |

| Sep 27, 2020 at 9:40 | comment | added | Chris H | I took a lot of snacks on yesterday's ride (to reduce face-to-face contact and having to lock my bike in dodgy places). I was out for 23 hours. I had about 3kg of food with me. A full road toolkit, 2 tubes, folding tyre, pump, spare lights roughly another 2kg. 20lbs isn't impossible, but it's certainly travelling heavy - plausible if you're going far from further supplies of all but water. | |

| Sep 25, 2020 at 22:47 | comment | added | Criggie♦ | Can you add whether your bag has a belt/waist strap? Or does it just hang by two shoulder straps? Theres a difference whether its held to you or free-floating. | |
| Sep 25, 2020 at 22:43 | comment | added | Warren Burton | 100 Fl oz == 3L = 3kg , and 20lbs = 9kg for the rest of the planet. Do you know your backpack is 20 lbs loaded or is that a guess? I carry a 3L bladder like you but snacks and tools shouldn’t be more than 2kg. Something doesn’t sound right. | |

| Sep 25, 2020 at 20:34 | comment | added | Paul H | Also mountain biking companies in particular are devising all kinds of a ways to carry tools on your bike. Lezyne, Topeak, OneUp, Granite, Wolftooth, etc all have very clever solutions | |
| Sep 25, 2020 at 20:32 | comment | added | Paul H | BTW, 100 fl oz of water weighs roughly 6.25 pounds. A 20-lb pack must have a lot of snacks in it! | |

| Sep 25, 2020 at 19:53 | comment | added | Weiwen Ng | FYI, in the US at least, we would call them hydration packs. I am not sure that Camelbak is an acceptable synonym (e.g. in the same way that people might call all ride shares “Ubers” or some people in the South may use “Coke” as the generic term for pop/soda), but Camelbaks are a lot of the market, and I find myself saying Camelbak because I own one. | |
