Great demo, I have the frame and seat post bag and would like to get the remainder except for the top tube bag. Trouble is I have other bags so mixed set up on either my gravel or hard tail I have put a water bladder in the frame bag, works well. The seat post bag I stuff it with already compressed items and just fill the spaces. Great kit. 😀
This looks like a decent setup. I have similar stuff on my wishlist on the decathlon website, so this just proved me I am going in the right direction :)
Hey Craig, thanks for the great video, it's really helpful. But I have one question left: what are those cool little aerobars that you're using? Where did you get them from, are they also Decathlon-stuff?
Hello, sorry for delayed response. I use standard bike lights and take a head torch as a back up. The rear light is a cherry bomb, I'm not sure on the front light brand and model, I will do a video on it.
I know it's annoying, when people write, i dont do it that way, i do it another way. But anyway :) For me, it works out lighter to just have a light aluminum demi rack in front, and an aluminum rack in back. Bikepacking gear gets heavy when its trying to maintain stiffness, and gets expensive. I just use up to four 20 liter decatlon slim panniers. Just as aero, maybe more. And much easier to pack and unpack. Bars are uncluttered, nothing rubbing paint off the frame.
I can see the panier set up would be useful for like more road surface trips, and wide flowing gravel, but a lot of thw routes near me are single track and a lot of hike-a-bike and I think the wider set up of paniers would be a hindrance. I will get some though so they match my set at least.
En el momento en que vi el bolso kislux , supe que tenía que tenerlo.
Thanks for your comment.

Your welcome.

Hey Craig,

Hello, sorry for the late reply. They are Profile Design Draft Legal aero bars from my triathlon days.
What do you do about lights on this setup? I’m heading down the decathlon route now. Very useful.

What is the make and model of the aero bars you are using? Did you choose those for a particular reason?
Sorry for the late reply, they are Profile Design draft legal aero bars which I had from my triathlon days.
Both S and M/L size frame bag is stopping production, there is only very few on store.
I may buy one just to make sure I'm sorted for life
@@coach_craig_chronicles If you find a M/L one, I'd like to buy it!
