I have a bivy tent which I purchased around 40 lbs ago. Last year I wanted to use it on a trip and it felt as restricting as my sleeping bag.
Bought a Naturehike Cloudup 2p. Weighs only 1.7 kg and has plenty of room.

I would say no. Too many factors that can go wrong.

Agree with Murph. Decathlon may be your answer, though their bikes can be rather heavy. I wonder why you find the Trek unstable. It has a relaxed geometry, maybe the size or handle bar height are not suited to you. I would do some more research into that. It will help, regardless of which bike you c...

Could not find my cable cutters, so used these and never bothered to look for the cable cutters again. Work fine, reasonable price and can be found in any hardware store

Being in the middle of this, I would say any travel plans should be delayed until June. They're predicting a peak by April, but closed borders will probably continue beyond that.
I guess this is an opportunity to re-explore one's own country

This post got seriously off track, but if you think about "impact on European tours" then we are already starting to see plenty. It will take years for Italy and much of Europe to recover economically. The good news is, after all is done , there should be some good bargains throughout the...

I have a Ford Focus estate diesel. I need to take off the front wheel, but fuel consumption is amazing. About 50 mpg
I want to go electric in the next year or so

That Crivit front light looks vaguely familiar - does anyone know if it's someone else's model, rebranded? It appears to have a K-number stamped on the lens, suggesting it conforms to German StVZO standards (I think). That might be useful as I try to avoid blinding oncoming traffic when I'm out rid...

It does not take a thousand people to infect you, but only one I live in Italy and other than washing my hands more often, life goes on like normal. Not saying COVID-19 is not a risk, but as much as other contagious viruses. Tv is making this much worse than it is. By June, the virus should be well ...

Rose Bikes out of Germany has a good selection

I have one and have used it only once, but seems suitable for the job. For the price it is a great product. They sent out many tents to reviewers and asked for input and to many reviewers' surprise they actually used some of their recommendations. The problem is, wanting to go a step higher brings y...

I would like to give some advice, but I cannot. I found the SLRs far to cumbersome, fragile and a target for thieves.

Purchased a Canon G9X MK II. Have been quite happy with it. I have printed up to A3+" with it.

Many places can replace lenses in regular sunglasses. Just remember, the more curved the lens, the more expensive it will be. I picked up some Nike sun glasses and had them put tinted lenses in. The cost was reasonable and they look good

If only for commuting, get low profile pegs (screws). The longer pegs are for BMXing, MTBing. Many pedals are also adjustable in that sense. For commuting, flats are good, in that if you are constantly stopping, no clipping is needed. The larger platform also avoids missing the pedal, and on long ri...

... announced a new bike route called ciclabile del Piave ... ... not indeed existing, except for pieces already existing even before this sort of "internet announcing" Too bad. I guess it's like the Alpe Adria. When it started it was more road than path, but now they have a large portion...
