Wheel and tire choice are the best places to start - then frame type/rack construction etc. 1.75" x 26" tires are a good choice. There's not too many cheap options unless you go old mountain bike frame. The Surly LHT offers the option though. Mind you I rode 32,000km over some terrible roads and through some insane winds on a sport tourer on 700 x 35mm tires. Made it work. Next time 26" wheels though.
