  • Surly's are brilliant bikes. They also build the big dummy bikes. Can't fault either. This guy's got great taste. Post Burry Port, Wales.

  • Alu or carbon for a racing bike? On yer bike son! Steel has come a long way from 520 land, or did you think the steel tech boys were hiding under a rock for the last 20 years?

  • @wilkbor He said they are harder to break and if they do it's 4 pieces to put back together, not 42.

  • Thanks for the tour. I certainly appreciate the benefits of a touring bike, but still don't understand the benefit of bar end shifters. You said they break down more easily? How is that an advantage? Thanks in advance, wilkbor.

  • I like it

  • nice bike

  • much prefer interupters and cant stand bar end shifters - sure they are easier to fix but they are not as comfortable to use

  • @DVMsucks

    Gotta love the good ol'-fashioned steel road bicycles! Mine is Reynolds 531 Steel from 1982.

  • After much research, i have found something of importance that i feel must be shared with all people that like to tour. I have found that 520 cromolly and 4130 cromolly are the exact same cromolly steel frames. WOW was i surprised to learn this. I have a link , however it will not let me post it here for some reason to show this. I currently own a Mercier Galaxy, way less than the Surly, yet made of the same steel.

  • You had stated that the fram was 520 cromolly steel. I thought the bikes were made from 4130 cromolly steel. Witch is it...thank you..
