Finally an honest video that actually shows all the essential gear, food, and cooking supplies. Thank you!
Thanks for watching Anthony! Glad it was helpful!
Great video. Finishing preparations for this weekends first bikepacking trip in over 20 years. First ever for my wife so I want it to go as smooth as possible. Your tips are much appreciated!
Thanks so much! I’m glad it was helpful and I hope your trip was a lot of fun! Thanks for watching!
Excellent overview of a great bikepacking setup. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for watching!
I got myself a Jones this year as well. And I already had the Moosetreks frame bag and feed bag that I was using on a previous bike and luckily it fit the Jones as well. I've also been wanting some of those Blackburn Outpost cages. Great stuff you've got there.
Thanks so much Logan! I couldn’t be happier with that bike. Jeff Jones really knows how to make a quality bicycle! And I promise, you won’t be disappointed with Blackburn cages - another quality product. Happy travels, friend!
Excellent video. Very straight forward and thoughtfully done. You said south Alabama. Im in dothan myself. Your video helped me prepare for tally tango coming up in October23 🤙🏻🇺🇸 thank you
Dothan, AL! Glad it was helpful. Good luck with the Tally Tango. That's on my bucket list. Thanks for watching!
Thank you, very nice setup. funny i use the Moosetreks my self and like you said, they awesome. thank you for the video well done
Thanks so much for watching!
Nice rig, set-up and video!
Thanks so much and thank you for watching!
Thank you Troy. Very helpful video
Thanks for watching!
Thank you Troy, I'll follow the same concepts 👊😁👍. Don
Thanks for watching, Don! Many happy miles to you!
Nice set up! I live in Navarre and also have gotten into bikepacking over the last few years. I would love to ride with u guys sometime.
Hi Ken! Thanks and that would be great! I’ll touch base with you after the holidays and we can meet up. Drop me a line on my email, or DM me on our FB page with your contact info. Thanks!
Very cool to see other setups nice
Thanks so much!
That's a great looking bike and tasteful configuration
Glad you like it! Thank you for watching!
Great video!!! So useful ✨
Thank you so much and thanks for watching!
Nice and informative 👍
Thank you for watching!
Nice. Enjoyed the video. I have been threatening to start bikepacking for years, but can't seem to get any of my regular camping buddies to draft with me on it! We typically canoe or kayak camp. Occasionally we even hike. So far only one has shown any interest in bikepacking, but we just have not gotten our schedules to work out for a trip.
Hope you get the chance to go soon friend, I am sure you will love it! Thanks for watching!
Very helpful; Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
I ♥️ my Jones LWB!
Can’t beat a Jones! Such great quality bikes. Thanks so much for watching!
Great video Troy, thanks. Can you do a short piece on how you attached the bags to the front shocks and how you attached the cages to the rear rack? Cheers.
Hi Jeff! Yes, I would be happy to do that! Look for that video in about a week, or so. Thank you for the suggestion and for watching!
Jeff, here's a link to the video you asked for. Thank you for the request! th-cam.com/video/qN8VuWnmQBU/w-d-xo.html
Very nice!
Thanks so much for watching!
Great video. Watching from Australia. You guys have so much selection of great gear compared to here. I’m envious.
Quick question how many litres are front fork bags?
Hello! The front bags are 5.5L - and I try to keep them relatively light. Thanks for watching!
Nice video! Any suggestions on budget backpacking bike? I'm 57 yo and don't need something to climb Mount Rainer .....LOL. thanks again for a great video
Hi George! Yes, I would recommend looking into Poseidon Bikes (www.poseidonbike.com). They have several models that are perfect for Bikepacking that won't break the bank. I'm thinking of getting one myself! Thanks for watching!
it comes in handy when boondocking
Cool! Thanks for watching!
Great video, thank you! I’m just getting into this. I noticed you did not use panniers. Can you explain why?
Hi! Sure! Basically, because with bike packing, you may travel on narrow single tracks or skinny places between trees. Panniers tend to be more bulky (which is fine for open road touring), so it’s not as easy to get through those spaces. Another reason is weight. Smaller bags equals less gear equals less weight when navigating tight turns, etc. That’s why my setup is configured that way.
You just need to be aware of your route. If panniers will work for where you’re going, then by all means, use them! Thank you for watching! Hope you get out there and enjoy it!
Great setup! How did you attach the two bags to the fork in the front?
Thanks! Well, at first I used clamp on lugs and then later, I drilled out my fork and added rivets. Here is a video I made on how and what I used:

Thanks for watching!
Great video. What was the yellow bar bag you had on the Giant? I saw it in your longleaf trace video.
Hi Nathaniel! That’s a waterproof bag I found on Amazon. It’s a decent bag, except the opening is a little frustrating because you have to roll it closed, like a pannier. Here’s a link to the product page on Amazon:

Thanks for watching !
@@TroyandAndrea Thank you, I can see opening it would be a little finicky. I think I have the same panniers as you had in that video and thought the matching handlebar bag looked pretty nice.

i love the jones bike. How wide are the tires?
Hi Max! Thanks! I am running 2.6 on the rear and 2.8 on the front. They work well with all the sand we have in the area. Thanks for watching!
Really nice bike! Could you please tell me which rack this is?
Thanks Hugo! That rack is an inexpensive Schwinn rack I found on Amazon and then modified with a rivnut tool to add mounting screws. Thanks for watching!
@@TroyandAndrea Oh allright, that's a good idea! There are really few racks that come stock with them, I might end up doing that.
You for gott to tell what you putt in The framebag or whas i just not paying attention
Hey! Yeah, I should have given more info on that. I mainly use it for food, lights, chargers, my cameras, and anything I need to get to quickly and easily. Thanks for watching!
Im curious, at 5:00 is this a 3.5oz (100g) or 7.4 oz fuel canister?
It’s the 3.5 canister. Thanks for watching!
hi troy, I am looking to do some bikepacking with my significant other but she is not interested in camping in separate tents. I dont blame her as we are both scaredy cats. So I will need a 2 man tent at least. Have you ever had one on your bike? I cant figure out where to put it.
do you normally sleep separately when you go with Andrea?
Hi! Yes, Andrea and I have separate tents. I haven’t tried carrying a two person tent, but I’ve looked into it. There are some pretty good options out there with various pole configurations and layouts, certainly doable and useful for bikepacking. On my bike, I would probably swap what I’m carrying on the handlebars to the back and vice versa, although some of the tents pack down as small as my current one. Another option is to strap the tent poles separately on a seat stay, or underneath the rear pack. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!
Why do you use a different drive train than the stock jones ?
I didn’t purchased the bike directly from Jones, and just personal preference. Thanks so much for watching!
What is the stock rear gear ratio
I honestly don't remember, it's been too long - I don't have stock parts on it. I changed out the rear sprocket to a wide range 10sp and it gave me much lower gearing for hills. Thanks for watching!
Tubeless tires? 🚴
Yes, indeed! Maxxis Recons. Thanks for watching!
FFS why not just pack the kitchen sink with you.
You can pair this down a lot, use the front wheel and a 3 metre triangle fly tarp, with a thicker groundsheet tarp, and really dump a lot of this weight and bulk.
Nah, I like what I got just fine, especially since a lot of the trips I take are fairly short runs, and relatively flat and I’m not in a hurry. I’ve used this setup several times now and been very happy with it. And that’s what bikepacking should be about - what makes you happy! Thanks for the comment and for watching!
