maxmaxmilan, Welcome to the forum.

The frame specs aren't at an expedition level frame's specs, but certainly doable as many tour on a CX frame. It should be a lively handling bike and with front and rear medium sized panniers balancing the load, capable of coping with medium-heavy amount of baggage.

I suspect that most economy priced frames don't recieve the personal attention as the higher priced frames so I suggest having the BB faced and chased and the head tube faced. I'd also go with bwgride's fork suggestion.

We love frame builds so post on your build progress (w/photos).
