Mark’s 650b light touring bike has no fenders (*gasp!*) but the accommodations are there if he changes his mind. This one was designed as a light touring/all road bike but also has the ability to travel Rinko style. Detachable low riders, slotted cable stops, dropout protectors, Rinko friendly straddle cable hangers, high chain hanger, etc. make this one ready to easily fit in a bag. The 48mm tires makes it feel like I’m riding on a cloud. I could get used to that.
