Hey Matthew. The Bleriot predates almost everything commonly discussed here, only the OG Atlantis and Rambouillet are older (I think, and not including Rivendell branded models). The Bleriot was the mass market version of the Saluki, the 650B only predecessor to the AHH? They were not only sold thru RBW, but I don’t remember all the details. I’m sure they are fine with a modest load, but I don’t remember all think they were ever marketed as fully loaded tourers…
