Alpkit already have a pretty sorted range of luggage for gear hauling in the form of frame bags, top tube fuel pods, and bar harnessed dry bags.

If you’re in the market for a stove we’d suggest you hold off until the new stand alone titanium Koro lands. It’s small, light and has a pre heat tube for use in winter. Price? A bargain at £30. We’re guessing a lot of Pocket Rocket owners may just jump ship.

There’s a second stove on the way that’ll please anyone who’s lusted after a Jetboil but been put off by the price. This one is likely to come in at circa £30 too. Don’t worry, we’ve already asked for a cafetiere style plunger.
