Biking can be an extremely cost-effective means of transport, holidays, fun and more! However, purchasing all the equipment you need to go on a long-distance cycle tour can significantly impact your bank account.
What I did with this article is the basic equipment you may need for a long-distance cycle tour. In addition to each item listed, I have captured an estimated price (in dollars) for that particular item and have shown a sample photo of that item below its price. Details Check this Website.
For example, The first item you need to buy for your bike ride is a touring bike. There are hundreds of touring bicycles to choose from but for the purpose of this article, I have selected one of the most popular and cheapest touring bikes available (the Surly Long Haul Trucker) and listed it for you below with an estimated average price of $ 1,095.
Now as you go through the list, you'll see a number of additional cycling touring items that you're likely to need for your travels - from luggage racks and panniers to tents and sleeping bags to camping stoves and sporks, and everything in between. Each item is displayed with the estimated average price and a photograph of such equipment.
While you might go on a bike ride without any of the items listed on this page, the items displayed here may be the items your average long-distance bike rider (planning to camp and cook his own food) carries with him carries around. Additional items like a camera, underwear, clothing, groceries, toiletries and just about everything else are not included. Only the basics were discussed.
Finally, at the end of this article, the cost of all these items has been added up for you. The purpose is to give you a good estimate of how much you would cost all this equipment if you bought them at the full retail price (minus any additional taxes, shipping costs, etc.).
