They are excellent bikes .. as a touring bike, you would be limited somewhat by the 451 tire size.. but there is a fair compliment of fast road tires in that size... used to be, Primo Comet 37x451 was the largest option (but a terrific tire) .. the suspension works well and the bike is very stable at speed .. folding requires front wheel removal .. I still ride a Reach Road (drop bar STI) from time to time ... one of our esteemed members toured extensively with his lovely wife on one.. maybe still does..
