Fantasy n+1, humour me.
Just had use of an ECR for a week and really enjoyed it.
Only used on roads and smooth bridleways, but loved the comfy ride, the traction and the stupidly funny way it goes downhill.
Bit of research suggests the ECR is a fair bit lower and longer than the Krampus.
I’d be using it for fun offroad, bit of lightweight touring and exploring and longer offroad days out.
Don’t think I’d need all the capacity of the ECR, got an old Rockhopper that gets used with panniers on road and I wouldn’t want to cart too much stuff offroad anyway.
So, can I carry a decent amount of stuff on a Krampus without spending a further fortune on braze ons or custom luggage?
Any pedalstrike problems with the ECR?
OK with standard 29’ers as a temporary bodge?
And, most importantly, is the Krampus a lot more fun than the ECR?
All thoughts and advice appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
