Hi all
I have an old racer that I picked up a few years back when I was keen on getting back into cycling. However, I've ended up as more of a tourer, so the bike really isn't ideal for the job (hard to control when loaded with 2 full rear panniers and a tent!) and I have also come to a final conclusion that the frame is a bit on the small side.
Whilst browsing online I came across quite a cheap frame, the "Kinesis crosslight" which seems to sell for around £250 and, whilst technically a cyclocross frame, it seems to be reasonably well kitted out for touring. It claims (can't find a pic that shows there are 2 sets though) to have eyelets for guards and a rack, and says that it actually makes a great tourer on their site. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with touring one, or words of wisdom from touring another CX frame?
