I take two trips per year about 2 months. And I don't do much touring in North America so S&S coupled bike is no brainer.

The bike (Salsa Travel Stainless Steel) and the case on the bottom left. Medford, Oregon last year just landed and bike assembled looking for a hotel nearby. Packed a wrong multi-tool so I just hand tightened thru-axles and pedals.



In Vietnam loaded.
