Why is this a thing?


There is a confusing landscape of gear out there for cyclists looking to embark on ultralight touring or bikepacking. With the rise of thousands of cottage companies, there is a staggering lack of gear reviews, testimonials and overall gear geekery in this space. This site aims to focus primarily on lightening your overall pack weight. The direction of this project is entirely crowd sourced. Starting with a YouTube channel we will eventully expand to a blog and possibly a forum. Ready to do this?
