Though boring to some, knowing what equipment other people are using when you are planning trip is worth a lot, so here goes, any comments or suggestions much appreciated

Bike

Frame: Surly Long Haul Trucker. Steel frame which is still quite light and can be fixed a lot more easily than an alloy frame.
Tyres: Schwalbe Marathon XR, supposed to be the longest lasting tyres that exist, we'll see if it's true!

Components: XT cranks, gears and brakes.
Hubs: Hope XC, easy to replace the bearings.
Rack: Tubus, super strong, doesn't break.
Saddle: Brooks B17, old school leather. Works well.
