Bikepack Hacks V1

I’ve led roughly 10-15 bikepacking trips per year since 2014,, and in that time I've picked up a few hacks. Here are 5 that come with me on every trip (+ one bonus hack at the end)

Great hacks, glad to see I'm not the only one who takes a real camera with me on bike trips.

Great suggestions, terrific presentation. Enjoy your bikepacking adventures this fall!

That 1st tip for the stove is genius.
I always take a cable lock.
Its far too cold for me in the winter to ride. Cant wait for spring to arrive

Thanks for the tips! I love my Hiplock - I use it to secure my seat bag while riding to eliminate any “tail wag.” I use Sea to Summit’s long-handle spork to get every last morsel from dehydrated meal bags. I have an Esbit emergency stove with fuel cubes, which is ultralight.

Watching this video makes me want to go camping. I also like the Micro-Tour videos!

[@rustybrockmann2344]

Good tips-my favorite, the cotton ball fire starters-they’re awesome.

[@718Outdoors]

Yes they are!

The 1st and 5th are hacks, 2, 3 & 4 are great product tips 👍🏼

Saved my money by not buying a Click Stand, (plus shipping) and bought a camera tripod at Value Village. For 4 dollars, I now have a cheap but strong telescoping stand. And gave other 2 legs to friends.

I love these videos! Keep it up 🤙🏽

Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, much appreciated!

Thanks for making this video

Wrap the cotton bombs with a square tissue to make it less messy

The hiplock could just go around the rear tire and then a pole or tree and no one could take your bike.

The dorkier the better imo

[@718Outdoors]

I will win that battle every time!

[@thefucrew9865]

Where do you find that "Click Stand" ???

@@718Outdoors , thank you !!!

[@paolosellan9445]

can I buy the click-stand at your store?

[@718Outdoors]

Oh yeah!

[@marcjanks]

Can you use the click stand to hold up a hiking stick tent?

[@Dr.Schlitz]

Most of those things are not “hacks.”
