The LHT is a nice bike. I think you will be very happy with it. I have an older one, in the first color it was offered in - Sage Green. Mine has been on a few loaded tours and it is solid and reliable. It is also great transportation around town.

Sounds like yours is the Truckaccino color. My SO has an LHT in that color and it's very nice.

These frames are powdercoated so they do not scratch easily. The tubing also doesn't dent easily. It's a durable frame. Perfect for a long bike tour.

Please post pics when you get it!
