This is for old mountain bikes (80's to early 90's) that have been converted to other uses with more upright bars/riding positions.

I call them "Safari Bikes"

Here's my 1983 StumpJumper Sport



I've been working on piecing this build together for a while, and here's the first iteration.

Still have some details and bits to change/refine, but it rides great as is.

I'm not sold on the Velo-Orange Porteur rack yet. I have the bag that goes with it, and it holds a ton of stuff which is great, but It throws the weight pretty far forward and makes the handling a little headstrong when I have it loaded with a camera and other bits.
