A touring bike is built to carry camping gear for days or weeks: a longer wheelbase for stability with a load, low gearing for climbing, and mounts for racks, fenders and extra bottles. The builders here focus on touring and expedition bikes and often make matching racks.
Many custom frame builders also build touring and randonneur bikes. For travel, see folding bikes that pack into a suitcase, and the touring models on the tandem page.
Littleford Bicycles is a one-person shop building custom steel and stainless steel touring and expedition bikes, lugged or fillet-brazed, with matching custom racks.
Made in: Portland, OR (frames and racks). Couplers, hubs, fenders, saddles and other components come from outside suppliers, some of them European.
