Advocate Seldom Seen?
This seems like an ideal off-road touring frame, and it comes in both flat-bar and drop-bar specific geometries (the latter of which interests me), and can take 27.5+ tires, or 29.
The frame is steel, comes with a fork and a custom frame bag. The green ones are $1K. The "sand" colored one is only $350 (+ $50 shipping). That seems like an insanely good deal, and then I could build it up however it suits me.
Supposedly this is similar to their Hayduke, but has more mounting options (and comes with a rigid fork, but presumably you could put on a suspension fork.)
The only thing that could make this better is a bike named after Doc. I'd almost feel like I had Edward Abbey's approval, next time I visit the Moab adventure theme park.
What say you?
