Trek recommends an 8L dry bag and says that's the best fit. In this video however we have a the Ortlieb PS 10 in a 12L on the bike. As you can see that's probably the largest you should try. Anything bigger then that and it will not fit.
Can you explain you show and mention Seattle Supply Drilite bags in the video then respond that Ortlieb 12L bags in the above comment to Charles. I am looking into which bags you actually have on that bike.
Hi Hope, I apologize, I miss understood. thought he was specifically asking about Ortlieb. I will clarify. The Ortlieb 12L bags just fit, if the 12L is stuffed full the holster strap has a hard time engaging and won't snap. they do work however If not stuffed full. The bags on the bike in the video are the Seattle Sports DriLite Cove Sack 10L. These fit perfectly. Here is the Link. www.seattlesportsco.com/bags/drilitetm-cove-sack.html Sorry about the confusion. This was Scotts video and he is no longer with us, was hard for me to get the details. Thanks for watching I appreciate it.
Yes, vary similar. Based on the Stache 5 for sure however the geometry of the frame is different, more touring friendly for when the bike is loaded up with gear.
@Ricardo Jose Dorado...I thought the same thing when I saw it at Fox Point this afternoon. I've got a Stache 7. After seeing the cages I almost wish my Stache had the mounting points. The orange would look cool on the matte green.
The back rack should be based on the wheel hub. If you wanna load more weight this bike doesn't gonna resist. Very cool, but not good for trips.
Nice bike
What length & diameter will the rear rack holsters fit ?? I'm thinking of Ortlieb Dry Bags.
Thanks

Would u recommend this for city commute
It would work for that. You could find a bike better suited for commuting but if you want one bike that can do it all this is not a bad option.
How many litres are the rear bags? Thank you
Very similar to the stache5

salsa fargo for the win IMO.

Yes, This model comes without peddles. You can choose purchase the peddles that best suit your riding.
