A few months ago I had a brain fart and sold my salsa Fargo. After years of touring on this bike, I had it very much dialed in for the long distance road riding that I like.
Now I’m bike shopping again this time for a touring bike appropriate for the Baja divide. Right now my short list is pretty much the surly ogre. It’s not super expensive, can be found used and has all the mounts for everything I might want.
What other bikes should I be checking out ? Here’s what I’m hoping said bike will feature.
-
Can take up to 3” tires
-
Lots of mounts. I will commute and road tour so I’d like to be able to run fenders and racks at the same time.
-
Flat bar bike. I’ll end up putting risers on anyways.
-
Rohloff & Belt friendly. My current bike has an Afine with a belt and I’m sold.
