How do I set up the Sutra LTD for my first overnight bike-packing trip?

Start by bolting bottle cages to the triple-pack mounts, add a frame bag, and strap a dry-bag on the fork. The chromoly fork handles 15 kg up front, letting you roll light and fast—no horse trailer needed.

Can a beginner handle this drop-bar mountain bike hybrid?

Absolutely. The slack head angle keeps things stable, while the 1x drivetrain is intuitive. Many riders call it the top rated road bike for beginners who secretly want to shred dirt.

What’s the best way to maintain those big 29 x 2.1 tires?

Rinse off grit after muddy rides, run 25–30 psi for mixed terrain, and check sealant every 3 months. These tires bridge the gap between a mountain bike and a road bike—treat them like the adventure changers they are.
