This bike is beautiful! I can’t stop staring at it. I wanted a bike for bike packing and it had everything I wanted, plenty of mounts, clearance for large tires, and compatible with 100-120mm suspension fork. I like that it comes with standard dropouts or can be switched to udh or single speed.
The ride feel is more mountain bike than touring which makes it really fun to ride when not loaded, which is most of the time. I’ve taken it on some blue trails and I was nicely surprised how good and fun it was descending on a rigid fork. It is very comfortable bike and I felt like I could pedal all day on it, which is a good thing for long bike packing adventures. Exactly what I wanted.
Nick and Adam were super responsive and I’m blown away with built quality. I’m looking forward to riding the PBJ for the rest of my life.
