So try this, lay out all your gear, put it into one (?) bag, see if it fits. I use a handlebar bag, frame bag, fork cages/bags and a rear rack with small bags usually for supplies and end of day beer. What works for me is different areas for food/clothes/tools/cooking/ sleeping stuff. Organizations is key for me. Lots of experienced riders here. Usually helpful if asked nicely. Got a pack list? Cheers.
