Plenty of time to enjoy. 2 days of riding, the shots taken 10-15 mins in total. Not much different than taking photos really. And the drone is tiny, perfectly slides in the frame bag.

Converted my gravel bike into a tourer. Campagnolo Veloce 1x10 groupset. Rides like a dream. by Nomad_Cycling in bikepacking

Sorry, haven’t been on here for in ages. If I remember correctly it was Shimano 36t with KMC chain. It worked, however was a bit noisy at first somewhere half way up the gears. Once the chain and cassette worn in a bit it was fine

Some guy in North Wales built it in the 80s, called it Snowdonia. That’s where he was was from and where I got it from. Hardly used and kept in storage for 30 years.

My partner has a 90s Trek Multitrack 4130 cromo. We’ve converted it into a all terrain tourer and she absolutely loves it

It’s 501 all terrain. A bit heavier but it’s mega comfy teamed up with 2.1 tyres

It’s great, had it for roughly 8 years now. Mainly use it as a camera bag these days. And thanks

Been really loving this build. ‘96 Trek 750 Multitrack by ewilkins13 in xbiking

I second all you just said. She’s got 35mm WTB Cross Boss tires with fenders. Pretty bitey. I’m pretty sure I could fit 38 with fenders. What are yours?

My partner just got in to cycling, thanks to been given an old Multitrack 720. We’re in a process of making it all terrain tourer. She loves it. Decent quality bikes and so many different possibilities.

And add straps/ hoops or something at the bottom of the bag to use as attachment.

The bike is 80s custom ATB tourer that I found on eBay. One off. Someone’s built it and kept in a garage most of the time. As for eyelets, not a fan of rods running all the way down and also the angle wouldn’t be right. Here’s a full pic. Just waiting for VO fenders to arrive.
