who has got a krampus, what are they like?
for a offroad touring and occasional offroad blast.
and pics of yours would be nice.
An ECR would be more suited,no? And a Rooster is waaaaay prettier.
rooster dont look like it will take rack and guards.
But it's puurty (little obsessed I am).
Great bikes, I have some Wildcat Gear harnesses for carrying stuff on the bars and under the saddle and a Jandd frame bag. Done a few weekend trips on it and it's very comfy over long distances.
On the flip side it's a really fun trail and singletrack bike too. Took it out for a blast today and I'm no slower (or so says Strava!) on it than I was on my old Dialled Alpine.
Here's a couple of pics - geared and SS'ed (with a suss forks experiment). It's currently rigid and SS.

Steve Makin uses his as you describe. Might be worth giving him a shout?

from yesterday
great bike, so good that I'm getting a Rholoff'd ECR soon for touring Iceland and New Zealand
the 29+ tyres roll really well, but can get a bit bouncy ๐
