Øhh wow. Sounds like you are on a good adventure!
Every time I've gone for bigger tyres i feel they are slower, and when I go back to smaller tyres I feel I need more squish... Only solution is to have multiple bikes and find a way to ride them at the same time :)
Also if you are underbiked once in awhile it is certain to be the best kind of ride imo

I’m definitely stuck in a grass is greener phase at the moment. Mainly because we’ve been forced to stop riding for a few weeks so I’m filling my hours staring at my diminutive 40mm tyres and yearning for more squish.
Once we start riding again I’ll spend less time thinking about bike nerd shit and just enjoy the views.
I need to remember that in 3 months of riding the Trans Mexico route I got 2 pinch flats and only got close to losing traction a handful of times.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.
I’m hoping that some tweaks to my Straggler will scratch the itch for an Evasion but I’ll have to wait and see. I’ve got another 15,000km of touring to do before I’m back in London so the whole situation is a bit of a moot point right now.
Every day I’m dreaming of having more squish…
