Hi there
next spring I plan a Trip from Switzerland to Lisbon, and after that I want to fly to canada to do the GDMBR Trail.
For this trip, I want to get a proper Touring Bike, as Speed isn't that important to me for that trip. Prior to this, i used a Gravelbike for smaller trips, which worked great. But for a trip this long, I want somthing more comfortable and sturdier.
I tested he MTB Cycletech Azure Pinion Bike. It's a swiss brand with a steel frame and a pinion Gearbox.
The Bike looks and feels right, but im really unsure about the price.
The bike costs fully equipt with a front and backrack and a hub dynamo around 4'500 swiss francs which is about 5'600$
I have a feeling that i will paying way too much for the bike that i get.
Do you guys feel that the price is fair or is it really too high?

Pinion tour bike are around that area of price, you can also check out tout terrain bikes. I bought a Contoura which has a Rolof instead of a Pinion but otherwise is pretty equal while being a fair chunk cheaper.
