Perfect for a world tour or a weekend adventure.
Custom built in Eugene OR.
This bike is comfortable no matter if you are riding with a full touring load or just panniers for a trip to the local market. I’ve toured it extensively in the US and Europe. I am selling because I am more interested in gravel touring/bikepacking and cannot justify keeping this beautiful bicycle hanging in my garage. The original owner (I am the second owner) designed it to be compatible with remote touring when rim brakes are preferred as they are easier to repair/replace. More pics available by request
