We love Surly bikes at Full Cycle. Below are the ones we stock and order most frequently, however we can get you set up on any Surly.

Long Haul Trucker Complete

A touring bike’s job is to go the distance and then some, in relative comfort, while carrying you and your gear. The Long Haul Trucker was designed in all aspects to get you and your stuff to…wherever. Its low bottom bracket and long chainstays provide comfort and stability, and those long stays increase heel clearance when carrying packed panniers. We gave it ample tire clearance for larger tires (larger tires soak up a lot of road static) with room for fenders too. The frame’s tubing is thicker-walled and larger-diameter than standard road and sport-touring frames, and this pre-tunes it for the weight of cargo. And it’s got braze-ons for everything you’re likely to need, from racks to water bottle cages to spare spokes.

Cross Check Complete

The Cross-Check is a great bike. It was the third frame we ever offered, and we offered it as a complete bike a year after the introduction of the frame. Neither the frame nor the component spec of the bike have changed much since we introduced it almost a decade ago because…well, why should it? We have made a few changes and updates over the years when those changes were either necessary or just plain a good idea. For instance, this year we’ve added mid-blade eyelets to the fork for mounting a front rack. This isn’t a touring bike per se, but it will handle lighter touring loads, and a front rack can make that easier.

Karate Monkey Complete

We’re not here to tell you that you need this bike. That’s not really our style. And anyway, you probably don’t need it. You probably have several bikes already. And yet, we hear from people all the time who tell us their other bikes sit gathering dust ever since they started riding a Karate Monkey. You’d be hard pressed to find a better riding, more durable, and more versatile 29er. Although even now in many places 29ers are still considered oddball, suspect, or downright alien, many people believe 29ers to be the best tool in the kit for riding singletrack, gravel, and a lot of other offroad conditions. Big wheels deliver greater traction than their 26″ counterparts, they offer a better ground approach angle, which helps make uneven terrain more easily rideable, they hold inertia well, and they generally fit taller riders better than 26″ bikes. The Karate Monkey’s been around for a while. It didn’t create the 29er category, but it helped bring it to the masses and set the standard for what a 29er could be.
