  • @Nef you should deffo give it a go somewhen! I think I’ll go back and do it again, hopefully not solo so the camaraderie picks me up a bit haha. I’d say hire an mtb for this as well!

    @ltc thanks man yeah it was my first time in Scotland and it’s definitely worth the trip. Cheers for the offer of the brake but I think jono has one lingering around so should be good there, will let you know if that changes (:

    @MisterMikkel I did my first bike packing trip on a specialized hard rock last year that was built in a similar style to that bike of yours! There’s a pic at the start of this thread I think. ATBs are sick, and I don’t doubt that one day I will own one, just not for a bit… riding an hour south of London to get to some off-road stuff is my regular kinda off-road riding and a big ol’ rig is maybe a bit overkill for that kinda stuff

  • I guess it depends on the kind of riding you do the most.. I don't think of an ATB a "big ol' rig". But I also need to carry groceries, two kids and lunch.
    Which incidently has had a severe impact on the amount of drop bar riding that I do :D
