Nice ride!
I'm having a hard time deciding between a Vaya and a Straggler...

Nice bike. Love the look with those Cazadero tan sidewalls.
I have a very similar bike (same frame (54cm), built with Sram Rival1). How do you like the front rack, and how does the Vaya handle with a load up front? I'm wondering because I'm thinking of buying the same rack :-)

Thanks! Fully front packed (15 kg) the Vaya still handles comfy and agile. Highly recommended.

The Cazaderos are working nice on gravel roads. Good traction. And they're rollin fast on pavement. I like those tires!
