Did a little MTB overnighter in Dorset a week or so ago, on the bikepacking.com Purbeck bimble route. It was great to get back on the Bootzipper. Wish I had found time to fit the bigger, knobblier, tubeless tyres I bought as I was struggling for grip (or skill) on some of the wet and rooty climbs. Handlebars are Alpkit Confucius (flat with front extension), which don't get as much love as the Jones style swept ones but I think are perfect for this sort of riding with a bit of every surface.
