Question for uk owners of Atto 2

I’ve just ordered a new Atto2 comfort and have read that the 2025 model came with fixed headrest, can anyone with an Atto2 comfort confirm if they have adjustable or fixed headrest. I’ve informed the dealer I want a 26 model as he says there’s no difference.

Travelling in Vietnam

We have booked our flights to Vietnam for next year, we’re flying from Scotland on 17/2 to HCMC and returning from Hanoi 78 days later on 5/5. We have no set plans and would like to just book days or a week in advance, is this feasible for transport and accommodation or should we plan a bit more in advance.
We are a couple in our late 50s so although we don’t want 5 star we also don’t want basic hostels, we plan to stay in places for a few days and maybe do 3 longer stays of around 10days. Feel free to suggest where you’d recommend staying for 10 days, also any recommendations for off the tourist places as we don’t mind small interesting places.

Planning on doing my first bikepacking trip next month with a mate, that trip will be roughly 500miles. In preparation I did my first 2 night 3 day trip, you certainly notice the difference the weight makes on inclines 😂. The trip was certainly worth while as we both learned stuff and certainly won’t be taking something if not needed, I think I took to many snacks with me considering we stopped at cafes and local shops for food, the bigger trip will probably have a shop or cafe on the route everyday so will carry enough to last 2 days only.
Forgot to say this trip was in the Galloway forest.

I have done multi day trips before but with booked accommodation, meaning I didn’t carry loads. I’m planning a 10 day trip later this summer and I’ll be camping, to get practice I’m doing a 3 day trip this week.

Having never ridden with panniers apart from commute to work, how big a difference does the extra weight really make? I can normally do 100mile cycle averaging just over 15mph, I’m thinking if I can average 10mph I should be fine. Do folk think this is realistic as my cycling partner thinks we’ll struggle.
