I have optimized the bike as the perfect bikepacking gravel bike according to my ideas. Thanks to the 650B wheels with 54mm mtb tires, even singletrack or rough trails are no problem. The Shimano grx 2x11 and the large 10-40T cassette offer a wide range of gears and allow you to pedal uphill as well as downhill without running out of gears.
For me it's been my bikepacking bike for the last two years, so it's already done 5000km and has a few blemishes. The paint chips on the top tube and the ones on the rear stays happened when I put the bike loaded on the railing. Due to the weight, it unfortunately slipped and scraped along the railing. So no fall. In terms of maintenance, the bike is in great condition and all conversions were carried out by the Rose workshop in Berlin as well as regular maintenance. If desired, I can also bring it back there for another inspection before selling it.
