Hello all,
I have nearly finished the conversion of my 8 speed commuter to a trekking bike ie: two racks 24 speed (MTB gearing) and light grade off road tyres (I thought about buying another bike for this purpose but as my commute is only 2.5 miles and I don't really have anymore room + my trekking is limited to a few times a year I thought I would use the one I have) The bike other than commuting will be used for forestry trails and canal routes/wild camping so I don't really need suspension. My question is if you were to build your ideal trekking bike would it have front suspension ?
