On the downhill side of things, the 200mm dropper post and robust DT Swiss XM1700 wheels spring to mind. Having a 200mm dropper on a short-travel bike like this was a game-changer when hitting mid-trail jumps, drops or chutes. Our bike came with a DT Swiss XM1700 wheelset, though the standard spec is Race Face rims laced to DT 350 hubs. We chose the Coleman Cooler Quad Chair as the model with the right combination of comfort, durability, usability, and price for most campers. Each comes with a convenient carrying bag that you can sling over your shoulder. Made from an easy-to-clean polyester fabric and metal frame. Whether it's a compact 2-person foldable table for intimate gatherings or a larger picnic table that comes complete with camping chairs for a family feast, there’s a size and style for every occasion. This chair's sturdy frame and higher seat height made that precarious dance just a little bit easier. The brakes needed a little fine-tuning but functioned well enough. Its tires needed air, but what alarmed us most was the barely finger-tight quick-release skewer on the front wheel. It probably wouldn’t have fallen off, but these bikes should probably have at minimum a safety check from a bike shop following purchase. The bike is also available online, so the final assembly will be up to you. Tote your gear effortlessly with Upgo’s collapsible wagon, which is 50 percent off for Labor Day. It can accommodate up to 350 pounds of cargo and features four all-terrain wheels that withstand mud, grass, gravel, and beyond. The wheels’ 360-degree rotation makes it easy to maneuver through narrow passageways, and the two front wheels are lockable to prevent it from rolling away. We explored the LivingXL Heavy-duty Portable Chair, a robust option for outdoor enthusiasts weighing up to 1000 pounds. Capacity XXL Director chair is a bit heavy; it lacks any built-in storage and is only offered in two (bright) colors. If you’re looking for something more subdued, that might be a little off-putting. We don’t regard any of these as outright deal-breakers, and at least where the storage issue is concerned, there’s an easy DIY fix. Where camp chairs are concerned, most of them top out at around 300 pounds of supported weight. That works for the majority of the market, but if you happen to be heavier than that, you’ll find that pickings can be slim. Many testers found other chairs more comfortable and easier to put together than the Nemo Moonlite Reclining Camp Chair. This is also the most expensive lightweight chair we tested, and we think the Chair One is a better value. There’s also a mesh pocket behind the backrest, to hold things you don’t need to access quickly. This chair comes with a sturdy carrying case, with an over-the-shoulder strap, and it’s simple to expand and fold up accordion-style. Kenda’s K1153 tires feature wire beads and are 2.35 inches wide. We were somewhat surprised to see Presta-style valves after decades of Schrader style on bikes like this. Its best features are, in our view, the width of the seat, the generous amount of supported weight, and its surprisingly modest price. The seatback has some slightly padded sections that do at least a little something to enhance comfort, and the armrests are nominally padded, too. But this isn’t the chair you’ll want to spend most of the day in.
