Good enough surface for any touring setup (>28mm) nice and flat with super views as well as nature noti...

Nearly as rare as the fabled HS56 brake lever, the Suntour Command shifter saves all the faffing and will quite happily shift 8 an 8 speed block and triple up front.

OS have a 3 for the price of two offer on at the minute and free p&P. Having toured for more years that we care to remember we are in a similar position to previous posters and have most of the interesting bits of the UK already. It gives you something to do when you get to the campsite, in the ...
