RTW 2-up on a Wee-Strom?
if i can talk my future wife into it I'm planning a RTW in a few years. (2014?) I rode a '99 KLR around the americas for a year in '03-'04 with little probs, but i had it farkled to the max. Now i'm considering a used Wee, like '07-'08, low mileage, of course farkled. how do ya'll think the Wee would handle 2-up? im 90kg, shes 45kg, but we'll have a ton of luggage. I'm not that concerned with speed/power as i ride slow anyway. more worried about her comfort and weight of our gear and reliabilty. Should i get ABS? what stuff should i change out? leaning towards all the Happy-Trail add-ons including Denali panniers. what other changes should i consider? we'll be doing mostly pavement but also plan to do lots of dirt roads, like in peru/chile, etc..
on a unrelated side note, anyone ever heard reviews of a Eaglemate single wheeled pull behind cargo trailer? i cant find any reviews except on their website.we want to carry two mtn bicycles with us! tom in montana
