Pre Cairngorms Loop last year. Now building up a Kinesis FF29 as a singlespeed for long adventure duties. Also testing a Wildcat Mountain Lion and Tiger. First trip with new set up will be in three weeks. Can't wait

Pretty much settled on this set up, sometimes with a Revelate gas tank or road tyres, or different gearing. Only thing to change is to get a Tiger seat pack, I reckon it'll be quicker, lighter and more adaptable than the usual type of seat pack.

So many cool bikes here.
Here's my (dirt)road machine, setup for a 600 km road/cross country ride.

Current setup -
Revelate sling with 13l drybag on bars for sleeping quilt, could drop to an 8l if we get some kind of reliable summer that meant I could use a summer sleeping bag! drybag is at a bit of a funny angle in this pic, should be turned 90 degrees and it sits nicer
Revelate tangle - small, tent poles, tube, spares, pump, snacks and stuff
Bikepak seat pack, tent or bivi bag, sleeping mat, cookset, camp clothes, camp food
20l alpkit gourdon for bladder and riding layers
I have a bikepak gas tank too but it's a right faff to try and fit with the tangle on so probably won't get used now

Thanks. It's a dinky Profile ~cough~triathlete~cough~ feed bag. £2 in a sale ) I have a large Rev gas tank but don't use it on trips where food is in easy supply / I'm happy stopping often (ie Spain where that pic was. mmm Tortilla..)
