Mtb gears for touring.
Hi guys and girls.
Ive been super lightweight single speed touring for a few years, but now my wonderful girlfriend wants to come with me.
This will mean taking a tent and more comforts, clean clothing etc. So generally more weight and probably the majority of it for 2 people.
The time has come for a bike with gears! I have decided that i want mtb style shifters and shimano for the ease of finding spare parts if needed.
But what groupset are recomended what is a good starting ratio?
Where to find a good deal?
My legs are strong but my girlfriends are not so we need advice for 2 different setups.
