So, I broke the news to my Dad about the Surly. He was well pleased and liked the idea of using a dropper.
We decided on a colour. Hopefully I can get it to paint before xmas. I just need to test ride it first.
He also liked the idea of front panniers and asked me if I could do it as a shopping trolley so the panniers have wheels and a telescopic handle.
I bet it already exists, but I will see if I can do something using my Ortlieb bags and some skateboard wheels.
Links to stainless telescopic 10-12mm tubes are welcome.
How about going the other way round and add ql hooks to a trolley? If you can find a reasonable light and waterproof one.
My guess is that it would be much easier to do.
