Notice the main character of the video is accompanied at times by one or two other bicycle tourists (one must be the camera man), and they both seem to be getting along without the benefit of a CoMo Pangea. I first thought the video was an ad for red Ortlieb panniers, rather than the Pangea bike.

The CoMo Pangea is very nice with some thoughtful features, but CoMo is one of the more expensive choices in a touring bike. A Thorn Nomad is probably it's equal at slightly lower cost, and if you want a Rohloff hub then the Nomad should be on your short shopping list.

The great majority of bicyclists can get by fine on a less expensive Surly LHT/DT with a derailleur drivetrain.
