Products for repairs, weather and steady fuelling

Confirm compatibility and practise the repair; nutrition and hydration must be tested and personalised before the trip.

Detailed planningRead the full guide

Tyres and weather matter more than carrying many products.

Bring familiar shoes/pedals/fit items; layers for cool/wet variability; compact repair kit appropriate to tubeless/gravel setup; lights where route/daylight warrants; enough familiar fuel for first rides.

Fall trips need colder/wetter margin and shorter-day planning.

Do not recommend one tyre width without the actual route/surface.
