Thanks for sharing. Clean setup. What size seatpack did you run?
Hi . It was a 14 litre seat pack . Thanks
Steve,
Enjoyed your details on this for sure. Just curious on your thoughts for choosing the Fargo TI rather than a Cutthroat for this type of ride. I’m looking at both now and will make a discussion soon. Thanks again
Hey Zach
Simple answer is i got my Fargo Ti in 2014 before the Cutthroat was released and have stuck with it since. This bike , even though fully rigid is incredibly comfortable and i love the feel of Titanium. The Cutthroat by all account looks an awesome bike also that could take on most adventures. Best of luck with whatever you decide !
