Step1
Divide the heaviest gear into two piles. Try to make the piles as close to the same size and weight as you can.
Step2
Place one pile in each rear pannier, with the most useful gear on top.
Step3
Divide the lightest gear into two equal piles.
Step4
Place one light pile in each of the front panniers.
Step5
Add remaining gear to the front and back panniers, until the weight is divided roughly 60 percent on the back tire and 40 percent on the front.
Step6
Ride your bicycle around the block to check that the weight is balanced side-to-side.
Step7
Add or subtract items from one side or the other, as needed, to balance the bike.
