Hi folks,
I'm planning my first tour this summer: Northern Tier eastbound Seattle to Chicago. I'm still unsure what the right bike is for me. My persistent dream bike has been the
Bilenky Midlands with S&S couplings. I know there are less (and more!) expensive solutions but I keep telling myself that the value of handbuilt steel and the couplers is an investment that will pay for itself. Price is a limiting factor as I'm a fourth year college student, that's why I linked to the cheapest touring bike BCW makes!. Any experience with BCW or S&S couplers, or even northern tier?
