agree with @Saffronspokes - avoid the east coast a9. Grim as fuck.
I ran 50/34 and 11/28 and managed - 11/32 will be fine, though with loaded panniers you might want more?
6 days is good for a relaxed pace.
gillies-
Thanks @gillies, will start building bike, have some ideas.
@Saffronspokes thanks for heads up. It would be nice to see where to cut the route but will look around as well. A9 seems like a no go area from everyone's experience.

I am looking to do it solo with wild camping. Looking at route there are enough hills to tackle. 50/34 - 11/32 is more than enough you think to tackle it? I am thinking to complete it in 6 days, not to rush too and explore a little bit.
