it’s listed for $200. it’s my size and been wanting to get a touring bike as a project.
is it any good? is it worth it?
also, what kind of upgrades would you recommend. i am new to this, but want it to look unique and beautiful as the bikes posted here.
would like to add a front fender (what color?) some nice basket and… actually, you can suggest what else
thanks a lot. love this community

You’d be a fool to not buy this
$5 us dollars 😀
These are dope and that’s a great deal. One caveat, as I have this same model: tire size maxes out at about 35mm. Otherwise, an awesome bike that I’ve held onto for years
Yup, a good solid touring bike at a reasonable price. I have a friend who toured across the US on her Jamis Aurora and it was a reliable bike.
For upgrades, that will be totally optional since everything on it seems like standard touring/commuter stuff that’s solid and reliable. But you could do upgrades here and there – new (& wider) tires, change the cranks for a wide-range 2x or something lighter, maybe a lighter wheelset (this probably has a Shimano Tiagra/Alex Rims wheelset, which is fine).
