Well then,

Looking at the ever expanding range of large volume tyred, slack angled touring/adventure/gravel things. Basically I want something similar to the Kona Rove ST, in steel but with the possibility of fork mounted cages. I have a Troll for heavyweight touring which is machinegunned with about a million eyelets but wanted a a more roadcentic steed which will take the usual ย bags but with a fork mounted option. I know I could use hose clamps and a similar sort of thing to the K lite cage adapters, but hose clamps look awful.

Any ideas from the STW hive mind would be appreciated

Bookmarked - I have a Vagabond & think I'd prefer something more like a Rove.

Big Rove ST is good, like mine.

Love the Rove Libre, but, carbon will kill my ancient skeleton. Any other ideas but with fork mounts for cages?
