backheavy setup - what to keep in mind?
(feddit.de)
Bikepacking: Off-Pavement Bicycling and camping where you would if you were to go backpacking. Bikepacking is generally in the backcountry, but you can bikepack on local trails.
I have heard a lot of opinions about why back-heavy setup is bad, but it always felt like they were a bit too theoretical. While most of the concerns are probably true, it seems they are pretty negligible compared to other factors, so I'd say - enjoy what works for you. Just maintain your bike well before going on an adventure. Check the spokes tension and the tires condition.
