This past Sunday’s ride, a view across the water from Alki Beach in West Seattle.

Because that’s what this bike is designed for as a low-trail bike. It’s biased to handle weight on the front. Even fully loaded with two panniers it handles completely neutral. It’s almost unnerving how normal it feels. More stability climbing passes too is also nice bonus.

I’ve toured with both this and a more standard four pannier setup and this one is far better, IMO.
