I have 3 touring bikes: Bianchi Volpe, Cannondale T2, and a Surly LHT.

I'm not sure that the Cannondale would have been usable if it sustained the same inpact the LHT did. It was stupidity on my part. I leaned my bike in a bad spot and it fell over on a sharp metal edge. It didn't seem to affect the LHT.
