Looking to do a bit of touring this year. I will require a new bike for this journey, problem is, there are so many to choose from, and some great content out there.
Currently, I am leaning towards the Trek 520, it's their longest running build, has an alloy fork and steel frame this year. Does weigh a bit though.
The Trek 920 looks good also, which I prefer, thought about frame only and a self build, but no idea how to build that up with parts to make a robust and reliable tourer. That would be a bit of research
The plan is, either around Scotland, or, ferry from Newcastle to Denmark, and then the Ferry from Denmark to Iceland, for a few weeks cycling and fly fishing.
What touring cycle would you recommend and why?
Happy New Year Folks!
