Bikes: Foundry Chilkoot Ti W/Ultegra Di2, Salsa Timberjack Ti, Cinelli Mash Work RandoCross Fun Time Machine, 1x9 XT Parts Hybrid, Co-Motion Cascadia, Specialized Langster, Phil Wood Apple VeloXS Frame (w/DA 7400), R+M Supercharger2 Rohloff, Habanero Ti 26

The Riese and Muller Supercharger2 Rolhoff HS would be my choice as I have done some minor touring on it and set it up initially for that purpose. It is a great bike. It is Bosch so better supported globally, dual batteries, 14 speed has a nice sturdy rack at the back and if you get the front rack it does pretty well. If you add in the Nyon you have navigation which does pretty nicely. Overall it is an excellent pick and for reference we had a customer with the older full suspension version do a tour of Africa on his and had a blast (it was a similar set up but might not have been the HS version) They also do a standard chain and derailleur but I love my 14 speeds.

Here is my bike on a tour actually:

I have upgraded the bottle cage to a ti flask cage and unfortunately lost those bottles (which I am still broken up about as the old mud guard caps were better than the new ones, ATMO) but it is nearly exactly the same with some more mileage on it.
