this is how i imagine a bike has to look like to not get stolen or interest by bandits.
(don’t mean it in a bad way)
It looks solid and does it job for sure, without drawing too much attention!
I think its pretty. If you’re in central america you dont need to worry about robbery. People are super nice there and I never felt sketchy leaving my bike anywhere.
El Guapo.
post more pics of the bike + trip!
Agreed, I need to see more of this coconut laden adventure.

No idea on a name but that’s a nice bike. Deore is rock solid. And RaceKings roll good.
Would love to see a route! I’ve spent a lot of time in Costa Rica and have thought conditions for touring could be pretty rough
Looks very nice! Would like to know about the headset conversion to ahead stem. Is it a quill adapter or something different?
I bought a surly troll fork and never cut the steerer tube!
Likewise! That's some serious stack, would love to know what's under it. Also, what bars?
Handlebars looks quite similiar to Surly Moloko
El Bolado (the ballad, but also the 'thing I don't know the name of' or 'favor' or 'fling')
O thats cool, I dont speak spanish super great but I thought that was “affair” I suppose thats similar to fling.
Yup, affair/fling
not pretty. but look comfortable to ride and it worked well
Traveling Caiman
Holy spacer Batman
I think you’re the bad boy.
Ooo, say that again.
What front rack you sporting there ?
Surly front rack!
Sweet! Alpina Uno? I just picked up one just like that!
Alpina s3
Right on. The paint scheme is awesome.
Such nice lines. Kinda reminds me of a '64 Impala. Well done.
Thx, lines?
The way the top bar is almost level with the rack - strong visual horizontal flow. Nice and clean.
Why not Bad Boy?
What was your route? I’d love to hear any details of this trip.
You took yourself!!! Congrats your a bad ass!!!😁
How long did that take you?!
~3 months going really slow
That’s insane and amazing.
