2 AeroPress Go
They always say that cyclists are coffee nerds. If you can't get going in the morning without an espresso, the tiny AeroPress will get you going. You can squeeze 237 millilitres of black gold out of the plastic housing, using muscle power of course. The pocket espresso machine disappears into its own drinking cup for transport.

5 Goal Zero Venture 70
If you're cycling through the wilderness for days on end, you don't want to suddenly find yourself disorientated in the forest.

6 TheTentLab The Deuce #3
Leave no trace. That's one of the rules of bikepacking. Of course, this also applies to human waste. With the 36 gram aluminium shovel, you can dig a 15 centimetre deep pit in no time at all. Not only does our waste decompose more quickly, but it also doesn't create a landmine for other nature lovers.
