• Seriously giving this Nordest a thought for comfy commuting, all round town dad-bike and an occasional packing trip. Other than quite pricey for 4130 and slack-ish geo can't seem to fault it.

    Thoughts?


  • Other than quite pricey

    If you don't need the extreme tire clearance the Albarda frame is 200 cheaper, still takes up to 2.1/50c tires.

    aaaaand special price is over, still cheaper though

  • The plan is do some mid-life touring on it in the year we turn 40 and the extra clearance could come in handy if we decide to go to more exotic/rugged destinations.

    Also enough clearance for commuting duties with guards and huge plush tires.
