  • I'll definitely be taking some cooking stuff, if that's what you're trying to say. I'm very aware of the idea that if you have more bags, you seem to fill them and I want to avoid that if possible.
    @skinny any reason you'd say front before rear panniers? The bike is a cross-check (I think mid-trail(?)) and so not particularly optimised for front loading (I think)

  • cooking stuff = extra 2-2.5kg.

    Cross-check have CX geometry, the fork is design to carry a front load, but the handling is not optimised for it.

    TL:DR it'll be fine, front load is preferable to keep the rear from feeling sluggish, make climbing easy and descent better with weight in front.
