I agree the trip will be short, and like I said once in a lifetime thing, so in some ways I wonder just because of that just how high-end of bike I need. I don't want the bike to hold me back, but yeah its a few months, and then probably go into storage. Would love to hit a shop, but local one closed few years ago, they would have great advise, but at a premium in cost.
I'm sorry but you are way off base here. Chrome moly is a good quality steel typically found on touring bikes.
