I took my wr to the Pyrenees. I kept the standard tank and just carried spare fuel. There are some nice plastic 1 litre multi fuel bottles meant for camping stoves that work well. Made by Trangia and available at Go Outdoors for about £15 I think. Indestructible and considerably cheaper than an IMS tank.
If i'm totally honest, i've been thinking of taking both, IMS 3.1 and a multifuel bottle for such trips just incase. Maybe i'm just a little inexperienced with such a distance, into such cold locations and therefore a bit paranoid Give me the jungle and 30 degrees any day
I'll check out Trangia and Go Outdoors...thanks. Gotta be better than the likes of Touratech hey...lol.
Anyone tried a roll up fuel blader that can stow away nice and small when not in use?
We weren't doing huge mileages in the Pyrenees, and the stock tank and a bit of spare worked really well for me. You need enough onboard for your day's riding because once you are up in the mountains on the trails, it's a long, long way down into a town big enough to have a fuel station.
I used a collapsible fuel tank in a RIB (boat) many years ago. Took a real hammering but never let us down.

Same as it previously did after unless you move the sensor on the pump itself.
