My recommendation?
Save a few hundred extra. Buy a Long Haul Trucker.
This is the very best bike you can get at a very good price for a steel machine that will do what you want it to do. I'm selling one of these to someone who wants to do something like what your doing at least once a week.
At least come and test ride it at the shop, and I can point out some things that you might want to think about if your thinking to get a bike. Might be able to do a bit of a deal on one aswell.
I've heard good things about the Thorn, which you can get through SJS. Problem is you can't test it first.
Maybe someone else has one that you could try?
