Thanks,

I plan to ride a Surly Krampus with framebag, seatbag and harness with a drybag in front. Given the weight of the total package I should be within the 33%. I do not plan to use a backpack, but I may be forced to use a hydration pack, but just for the drinks.

My singletrack experience is close to expert (self bragging), but I am not used to ride with packs. But thanks again for the quick and good help.

Hi,

I am quite new to bikepacking and I plan a week long trip in the Norwegian mountains this summer. I need to bring a lot since the chance of getting food supplies are slim. Whats the boarderline in lines of weight where the bikes become to heavy for singletrack riding? The route is about 350 km and consists of 70 % singletrack/hiking trails and the rest is fireroads. Not to steep hills, but I. Expect some hike and bike and some carrying.

For the moment the calculatet weight is 13,5 kg (including three days of food, I will have  apick up point for food about midway)

Thanks for any comments.
