1- you want a touring bike?...you already have one.
2- dont look now, but a Voyageur with Tange tubing means it was made out of the states.
3- you would need to go custom to get a touring bike made in the US at this point. There isnt a single mass built touring bike made in the US at this point. Just a heads up so you can rip that bandaid off and hurt just once instead of continually being disappointed when looking at touring bikes.
