Wanted: Touring Bike w/ Disc Brakes
Looking for a used Trek 520 disk or Surly Disc Trucker, 58 cm or thereabouts. My old 520 broke, Trek covered the warranty, but I was not happy with the results. Now looking for a used touring bike to last me for the next ten years or so. Looking to do cross country trips and perhaps South America.

2014 Giant AnyRoad One I bought this new and just replaced the stock tires. It's a 20 speed with mechanical disc brakes and medium frame size. It's hanging in my garage if you're interested.

Darn! The disc (real disc - thru-axle, not QR) touring bicycle that I'm selling is a 48cm. You should've listed the size in the thread title.
