Default Need small rugged SW for long distance bike tour

What small rugged model SW would you guys advise for
such a trip?


Not sure how rugged you need it to be. Most of the small Degen,
Redson, Eton, etc., radios would easily survive being carried in a
backpack or pannier. If this is a multi-week trip consider that extra
batteries may take up needed space and add weight.
