• Do you need all that capacity?

    Might be worth pulling out all the shit you want to take. Put half of it back, stuff the rest into panniers and then see what's left... Basket can hold quite a bit + easy reach for jackets/snacks. Frame bag is handy for keeping weighty stuff (tools etc.) centred or grabbing food on the go - might interfere with bottles though.
