I have few thoughts about bikepacking on recumbent bike.
Because of the weight distribution I don't see any difference in the ridability and handling. The issue with flexing bike when loaded with bags isn't noticeable when riding only when you need to push it.
But the hills are killing me it isn't ideal without the bags but with them it is brutal.

Just to clarify for all of you. Recumbent bike balance only in some speed, for me it is ~6 kph. So on normal bike I can spin my legs go slowly, still balance and gradually push through the hill. But on this I have to keep some tempo even uphill and can't help myself by standing up.
