Jamis Renegade Expat

A good solid off road bike packing machine. This one has a Reynolds 520 steel frame and a Crabon fork, TRP Spyre disc brakes, triple bottle cage mounts and mounts for rack and fenders just in case. The Diverge wouldn't be so bad in Crabons but it wouldn't have the durability of steel. I wouldn't really want the aluminum version because I just am not a fan of the ride quality. The bike is cool though and I have sold both.

If you up your budget a bit you can get the Renegade Exploit which has a Reynolds 631 frame and 105 components plus Hy/Rd brakes (cable actuated hydro discs) I would much rather have that one for everything you are getting. Plus they go to "eleven" ; )
