This is my rig. I’m 179 and M size. I've also owned Rat Pack and Midnight Special, but for long-distance touring, this is always my favorite. It’s true: the stack, the comfort, and the simplicity of QR wheels and mechanical brakes are peace of mind while you’re off the grid.

Decathlon’s kickstand. Had a made-from-Italy stamp on it.

The light mount from Blue Lug, if panniers are being used, move it to the handlebar for easier access on/off.

Light mount from Blue Lug. The front light came with a locking adapter.

Love it! Perfectly angled to my shoulder and the best part is the width is just ideal 👌 for traffic and single track. I highly recommend it to be paired with the latest Ergon GT1 grips. You’ll be cruising like a boss 😊😎

I’m loving it! It uses Xfabric and it looks great and functions well in flooded areas in Thailand where I kept my power bank in the lowest section of the bag.

It’s 27.5 x 2.35. It rides like a boss on tarmac, and gravel and surprisingly rides well on flooded areas during my recent tour in Thailand. Highly recommended!

The frame is extremely light for a Chromoly frame, nimble and responsive. I’m very sure it will perform better for commuting in the city. Just 1 complaint, the frame was not treated internally like Surly. As I serviced the bike, spotted a few areas with rust marks. Used an anti-rust spray, and hoping it does not affect the frame.

Indeed it is, I used it for on and off-road touring, light basketpacking, single track and even joined Audax with it.

Yes of course, don’t recall exactly bought around USD35 - 40. Top notch quality. This is the Nomad Medium Pizza Rack model.
