If you want to carry a lot of stuff while riding your bike long distances, you’d be hard pressed to find a better bike than the Long Haul Trucker. You’d also be hard pressed to find a

better sale than this one.  The bike is practically brand new.  Bought in January 2010 and only used  ~500 km.  Plus, it comes loaded with all the accessories ready for a month-long trip to China or the grocery store.   Looking to sell this weekend because I am leaving shortly for the United States.   You can’t find a better bike for carry heavy-loads. It’s comfortable to use and has good speed.
