I’ve gotten a lot of hits on this blog the past several months for what I determine as wanting to find more on the Velo Orange Campeur. Here are the specs for those people. Here is my frame size (55cm) geometry compared to arguably the most popular Touring bicycle, the Surly Long Haul Trucker (LHT) but in the 56cm frame size. You can draw your own conclusions.
