Shownotes

In the 4th episode of Unpacking Bikepacking I dive into the some of the common issues that gravel bike riders have while taking on various bikepacking adventures, and how to make that gravel bike into the perfect rig for bikepacking. Throughout the episode I look into various things, such as suspension, handlebars, fenders, tire setup, and more.
