23Kg is standard airline weight. That's carryable. As I mentioned total BO load is approx 40Kg each. This is too heavy to carry up a hillside and in packed in separate bags ( bicycle high capacity Panniers actually)

That's cool. My misses is getting me well into cycling, but has banned me from having panniers.....for now.

What do you do about longer items, because most panniers are pretty shallow? Or is that in the high capacity part? (can you tell I'm new to cycling haha).

Have you ridden that route fully loaded yet? Does the weight take a lot longer, or do you adjust your gearing to make it easier?
