I'm also making my own gear now and have switched bike since then, my tip would be to add both of those bags to your setup. I was a riding a size Small so, fairly small frame bag, but was able to fit a saddle bag (Wayward Louise Dropper) and a Revelate Pronghorn up front. I used to ride a Trek Roscoe, not the exact same bike, but v close nonetheless. Lots of suspension in them, just different use case. Joe at JPaks has done this for people before, including my friend Will on his Tallboy.Īs for suspension, I needed it for getting KOMs at White Ranch, and it's very nice for Colorado Trail abuse, but I would save weight staying rigid for jeep road bikepacking and run 2.8-3.0" tires. If I did it over again, I'd probably try getting a custom bag for the top of my top tube to essentially enlarge the front triangle. I don't use a seatbags or even handlebar bags I can fit so much in it(size XL) even on 3+ day rides. I did switch to a Surly Krampus because I could pack double the amount in the front triangle. It's so playful, light, just rides like a big BMX bike. Unloaded, it's probably my single favorite hardtail I've ever had. These kinds of subs are targets for spammer so we appreciate your reports.
