Gravel Race Kit
Built for supported and unsupported gravel races where every gram and every second counts. This loadout strips bikepacking down to the bare competitive minimum — a bivy-weight shelter, the lightest cook option, and racing-specific bags that stay aero. Think Unbound, Silk Road Mountain Race, or Atlas Mountain Race.
