That's a key point, since some of the pre-80's bikes advertised as tourers didn't have many braze-ons.

On the other hand, I think McDave's re-purposed High Sierra--or any other 80's rigid MTB with relaxed geometry--could be thought of as the perfect roughstuff vintage touring bike. I vote to see them all!
