what do you usually use the basket for?
Very nice setup! What’s the size of the cassette / chainring? Don’t you want to add fenders? On long tours where you can’t clean easily things it’s pretty nice.
That’s a pretty lightweight setup for trans-continental. I see only two ~25L panniers, two ~10L, a downtube thar doesn’t even occupy the whole triangle and a feed bag.
Fijne velo. Check dm
Are you mostly looking for gravel roads between the two?
