  • Anyone got a recommendation on a fastish tourer? For day / long weekend trips that don't require all the panniers.

    Disc brakes, mounts, fenders of some degree. I was looking at the Grizyls, but they're mostly out of stock except the ltd edition one.

  • Fairlight possibly in a similar category of all road adventure bikes. I always liked the look of Shand for similar but £££. Most brands probably do something similar now under their “allroad” branding if you have a brand you already like/fit. Genesis equilibrium used to be a reasonable option but pretty pricy now new!
