The rider behind the shop
Assalam o Alaikum,
I'm Imtiaz.
Rider, hiker, and the man behind the counter at Shop No. 28, Container Market, Bilal Ganj, Faisalabad.
Most of my year is planned around the next trip. A few times a year I load the bike and head north: the Rupal Face of Nanga Parbat, Nangma Valley in Baltistan, Mantoka Waterfall, over Babusar Pass, up the KKH, and valleys so remote you'll hardly find a video of them online.
Riding has also taken me beyond Pakistan, touring in United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia. Every trip teaches you which gear you can rely on, and which gear lets you down at the worst moment: a tent that leaks at 2am, a stove that won't light in the wind, a power bank that dies on day two.
That's why Adventure Shop exists. Bilal Ganj's Container Market is full of imported stock, and from Shop No. 28 I pick out the outdoor and riding gear that actually works: double-layer tents, proper sleeping bags, stoves that light first time, and lights and chargers that survive a full day on the bike. Some of it, like our tank bag, now carries the Adventure Shop name.
I film almost everything I sell and post it on TikTok and YouTube. I'd rather you see a product working on camera than read a long list of promises.
I'm also part of Pakistan's riding and touring community: the Distinguished Gentleman's Ride, the Faisalabad Association of Tour Operators (FATO) meet-ups, and plenty of group rides with friends. If you ride, hike or camp, you're welcome at the shop for gear, advice, or just a cup of chai and trip stories.

How I run the shop
What you can expect
✦
Used before it's sold
Tents, stoves, lights and bags go on my own rides and hikes first. If it doesn't hold up out there, it doesn't go on the shelf.
✦
Every item on video
I film the gear in real conditions and post it on TikTok and YouTube, so you see exactly what you're getting before you pay.
✦
Honest condition grading
Pre-owned tents and branded gear are graded out of 10 and shown on camera. 9.5/10 means 9.5/10, not "like new".

Advice from a rider
Planning a trip north? Message me. I'd rather help you pack right than sell you something you won't use.
✦
Delivery all over Pakistan
Order online, pay by bank transfer, JazzCash or Easypaisa, and track the parcel from packing to your door.
✦
Chai at the shop
Drop by Shop No. 28 in the Container Market. Try the tent, feel the sleeping bag, and swap trip stories.

Riding together
The best trips are the ones you share. From the Distinguished Gentleman's Ride to the Faisalabad Association of Tour Operators' annual meetup and weekend rides with friends, this community is a big part of why I do what I do.

Questions I get every week
Which sleeping bag do I need for the north?+
Look at the comfort rating, not the limit. For summer in the valleys a 3-season bag is fine; for autumn, winter or high camps choose something like the Naturehike U350S (comfort around −3°C) or a down bag.
Single-layer or double-layer tent?+
Double layer for anything beyond a picnic. The inner tent breathes, the outer fly takes the rain and wind, and you stay drier and warmer. Automatic tents are fastest to pitch; classic pole tents pack smaller for the bike.
What does "pre-owned 10/10" mean?+
Branded gear we've checked ourselves. 10/10 is as good as new, and anything lower is shown honestly in the video. These are usually single pieces, so message us to make sure it's still available.
How do I pay and get my order?+
Place your order on the site, then send it to us on WhatsApp. We share bank, JazzCash or Easypaisa details and the delivery charge, then pack and ship. You can follow every step on the Track page.
Can I come and see the gear?+
Yes. We're at Shop No. 28, Container Market, Bilal Ganj, Sargodha Road, Islam Nagar, Faisalabad, Pakistan. Sat-Thu · 10am-8pm · Friday closed.
