One well sort of as my son has taken possession. It is a Giant Defy, which I converted using a Bafang BS01. EDIT: Forgot to mention I have a Reise and Muller Supercharge 2 GT Rohloff coming from Germany on a slow boat.

Interestingly when I brought my Salsa Mukluk frame (I built up the bike), I brought it from Bike24.com in Germany. If they where selling them, then I suspect there was at least then a market for Salsa in Europe. That said, as you say QBP is a large USA operation, so I am not at all surprised by...

I am not Salsa Cycles so I suggest you contact them directly. I provided their contact details in an earlier post.

It looks very slick. Enjoy the ride.

Via a Supercharger 2 user, I have encountered these Ortlieb Fork Packs. They are 4.1 or 5.8 litre—another option to consider.

Ah, well, I am sure that Salsa Cycles would appreciate your expert advice. You can contact them at https://www.salsacycles.com/salsa/contact. It may have been my choice if the Tributary had been available when I ordered the Supercharger. Each to their own, of course. BTW, they are Cowchipper...

Thoughts on the Cowchippers ... now, given Salsa's extensive experience in bikepacking bikes and that they are still selling them I am inclined to go with their expertise and experience and the thoughts of users and experienced bikepackers. YMMV. Salsa Cycles Cowchipper Bar Quick Review...

A quick update. I had to replace the front pads on my Salsa Mukluk today after 1,700 kilometres. I probably left them a bit late, to be honest. Anyway, I had a set of SwissStop Disc 15E pads on hand for some reason, so I fitted them. I did do a comparison to a set of SwissStop Disc 15 pads I...

So that they can find it and steal it easily and resell it.

The New Bacchetta Pronto Alto High Racer Recumbent. This brings back memories of my early conversion of my Bacchetta Giro in ~2008. I fitted a Bafang BBS01 36V 350w 18Ah motor to it.

Nice looking bike, which of course, is not brought into Australia :(. BTW I assume their claim of 50 km range is an error given that it is a 500 Wh battery.

The lesson being if you purchase a second hand bike, check it damn carefully for trackers.

Thanks, Stefan. Well done on the race and thanks for the info particular on the battery consumption.

Rag, if I bother at all.

I am tossing up the option of carrying panniers on the front of my forthcoming Reise and Muller Supercharger 2. This is just one option; I may stick to getting mounts to mount my Salsa Anything Cages. In the meantime, I am considering the various options, including a front rack. In days past...

Nice effort, well done. What as the total battery Wh that you carried or did you do a recharge at some point?

14.47 kg for the Turbo Creo 2 Comp against 14.57 kg for the Confluence GRX 6002X.

I so wish for something similar here. You are lucky having access to such a policy.

I have no issues with the use of cameras and have reported numerous drivers. Some of those reports have resulted in fines over AU$600. I now prefer a bike-mounted camera, but having a helmet-mounted camera has proved very beneficial in one of those incidents, resulting in a fine as it showed...
