• Buy cheap, buy twice though. So what might appear to be a bargain now may not be over the longer term. If you want cheap bikepacking bags just to see if you like using them, I'd consider borrowing stuff first.

    Reduce, reuse, recycle.

    I like my Revelate gear too. Buy it 2nd hand and sell it on if you don't need it.

  • Agree with the buy cheap, buy twice, and with re-using. I was just wondering if there was a particular brand that was known for being decent and no frills at an ok price, as happens occasionally.
    The stuff on the Alpkit and Planet X websites look pretty good .

  • Deuter and Topeak maybe? Not as sexy as the US brands but do the job.

    I used Deuter on PBP in whatever year I did it and I'm still using their frame triangle and top tube bags.

  • Wiggle/Lifeline do some too and they are usually good for other cheap things.
