Flat Bar Bike for Long Distance w/ Light Load ?
I’m looking for a flat bar touring bike not so much for the ability to carry things but rather for the comfortable geometry on long rides on pavement .
For example , I’ve read that Surly's Long Haul Trucker rides better loaded than unloaded.
I’m open to frame material but for tires don’t want to go below 38mm on 700c .
I’m 5’9” with a short inseam 29 in. Or 78/79 PBH , Pubic Bone Height .
Open to converting a drop bar to flat , and open to having it built up from a frame .
