The KM Ops has those rad switchable dropouts and can run all sorts of cool shit at the back.
I am very happy with mine. I was dead set on getting an Ogre but was offered a good deal on the KM and thought "am I really going to tour across Africa for months on end?". The answer... at this point is sadly a no. The KM + ECR fork is a good compromise, the bike is currently pretty much the same spec/setup I'd planned for the Ogre, cheaper and just as much fun.
I made a few changes recently, nice shiny drivechain, new pedals and bigger tyres. Feels solid, reliable and pretty much bombproof, which is what I want from all my bikes really.
