How I pack my bicycle without panniers

Pannier bags can be expensive and heavy, in this video I demonstrate how I attach camping gear to my mountain bike with 4mm ropes. I am preparing to cycle downhill in a mountainous bushland part of Australia. Panniers are great for people doing long overnight road tours on their bicycle, but on a rugged cross country trail panniers are a dangerous burden. When riding a bicycle in a seated position about 70% of your body weight is on the back wheel, with rear panniers there is simply too much weight on one part of the bike. For safe handling of sharp turns and more technical manoeuvres you need to move your body weight forward and back to help absorb the impacts of the trail. In the video I attach about 8kg of camping equipment to the bike's frame, this includes about 3 litres of water on the handle bars. The rest of my gear is around 6kg in a small backpack and bum bag. The total is about 14kg including food and water, if you were to place that much weight into panniers when doing rough downhill mountain biking you would likely get buckled wheels or lose control and crash.
