No, I’ve never done any touring on it or otherwise. I only ride with the one pannier, so I can’t give you any insight into the weight distribution. Through researching the old catalogs online I found that the 610’s had a slightly sportier geometry then the 1000’s had. Head and seat tubes were at 73*. You should check out the old catalogs. Lots of cool info
