Surly Bill Long Bed Trailer
Surly Bill and Ted Long Bed Trailers
Our Price: $714.98

There are quite a few options these days for trailers that carry kids or dogs, luggage, groceries, and other relatively small loads. Trailers are nice because they can be detached when not in use, but most trailers can’t haul much weight and the ones that do suffer some design drawbacks such as incompatibility with many kinds of bikes. Conversely, there are quite a few cargo bikes that can haul bigger loads, but cargo bikes meant for a lot of weight can be difficult to load, are sometimes difficult to ride (sometimes due to the bike’s design, and sometimes due to the sheer weight of the bike itself), and require a lot of space to store. We felt we could help bridge the gap, so we designed two trailers meant to haul a lot, to be easy to use, and which would work with a bike you have already.

We make two bed lengths so you can find one that suits your needs. Bill is the long one, and Ted is the short bed (get it?  Bill has more letters than Ted, so it goes with the longer trailer).  The beds and hitch are constructed mainly of TIG-welded 4130 CroMoly steel. CroMoly steel is tough and durable and well-suited to this task. We used 304 stainless steel hardware where appropriate to ensure corrosion resistance and a long life. The beds have threaded eyelets for bolting down decking, corner posts, or creating other custom accessories using readily-accessible materials from your local hardware store, lumberyard or home improvement store.

The wheels are 16", keeping cargo low to the ground. 16" wheels are also stronger than larger diameter wheels favored by many trailers. We designed our own hubs to meet the requirements of this frame. The rims are double-wall with stainless eyelets. The spokes are stainless steel, radially laced. Combined with smooth, easy rolling 1.95" tires, these are stout wheels designed specific to their purpose.

Our hitch system is designed to be as universal as possible. Regardless of the configuration of your bike frame, our hitch will likely fit your bike. It doesn’t clamp to the bike’s frame tubes. Instead, it attaches using a proprietary axle skewer or thread-on axle nuts. The Surly trailer hitch works with full-suspension frames, disc brakes, rear racks and fenders. It adjusts to accommodate hub widths from 120 – 145mm and allows you to align the centerline of the trailer on the centerline of the bike. It will work with bikes that have wheels as small as 20" and as large as 29" while keeping the bed level with the ground. This is especially important when you are hauling long items that hang off the back of the trailer (lumber, tubing, ladders, etc.).

There are some things to learn about using a trailer like this to haul stuff. You’ll probably want to use a bike with gears, for example. As well, learning to load it right becomes more important as cargo weight increases. Load it over the axles, balancing the load. Too much weight on the hitch (tongue weight), or too much weight hanging off the back, and the bike’s handling will be compromised, making it harder to control and potentially damaging your bike, the trailer, or you. Finally, we do not recommend ever carrying people or furry friends on Surly trailers. Sure it might be fun, but someone could get seriously hurt and that’s not fun at all.

The frame is a solid unit constructed of welded CroMoly steel square tubes. The hitch can be adjusted to level the bed, making it easier to carry long items.

The wheel covers keep cargo from shifting into spokes and provide load-bearing support for items that don’t fit between them. Threaded bosses, in the wheel covers, provide mounting points for fenders and spoke guards (not included).

The hitch is highly adjustable to fit most types of bikes and a wide variety of wheel diameters and hub widths.

Colors: Silver with black hitch

This price is for the hitch and trailer.  They are also available separately.

Product Description

If you're looking to carry a lot of stuff while riding your bike long distances, the Long Haul Trucker is your perfect match. Built with durable and long lasting parts, this touring bike has been one of Surly's most popular models because of its great value.
  • Designed for fully loaded touring

A few words about the rear hub:  The NuVinci continuously variable planetary (CVP) is the first viable CVT drivetrain for bicycles and a revolutionary, new alternative to conventional derailleur and fixed-gear internal hubs delivering a totally unique riding experience. The ride is incredibly smooth, allowing the rider to shift "gears" while pedaling, coasting, or at a standstill. Its elegant, simple design delivers all the advantages of planetary gear sets without the limitation of fixed speed ratios, without wide gaps between gears, and without jolts or jerks to the rider?s legs and lower back. The Nuvinci hub comes with a 6 Bolt disc brake hub adapter Hub Specs Are As Follows FL DIA : 148MM CTF: 25.0MM OLD: 135MM

Propaganda from Sulry:
As you may know, our Long Haul Trucker is a touring frame suited to long distance, loaded travel in relative ease and comfort. It’s designed to use racks and panniers, fenders and larger volume tires. The fact is, however, you can’t ride your bike everywhere. Sometimes if you want to take your bike along —say, across an ocean-- you need a convenient way to get it there with the least amount of hassle, expense, and potential for damage.

The Trucker DeLuxe is a version of our Long Haul Trucker utilizing S&S Machine Co.’s bicycle torque couplings, better known as S&S Couplers. These are machined stainless steel pieces that are brazed into the top and down tubes of the frame. They add a small bit of weight (less than 8 oz/227g per frame), but result in a bike that can be split in two, partially disassembled, and packed into a case for transport. When you put it all back together, you have a regular bike…your bike. Unlike regular LHTs, the Trucker DeLuxe is available only in a 26” wheel version in all frame sizes. Why? First, 26” wheels with inflated tires will fit into a travel case within common airline regulation size, meaning it is not considered oversized, and therefore is not usually subject to extra fees. Inflated tires do not pose a problem on most airplanes because even the cargo portion is pressurized, so plus when you reassemble your bike it is pretty convenient not to have to reinflate your tires with a frame pump (you’re not going to fit a floor pump in that case). And 26” is a popular global standard, so finding tires, tubes, or rims will be easier to find than 700c stuff if events warrant finding such things..

It should go without saying that owning such a bike brings some responsibilities on your part. You will need the basic tools and know-how to safely remove and reinstall your wheels, your handlebar or stem, your pedals, and possibly other stuff, like your fork (especially on larger frames). Learning to pack your bike in a case requires some patience and practice too. Be sure and visit S&S Machine’s website (sandsmachine.com). Their story, their recommendations for care of your S&S Couplers, and their own reasons for why a frame with S&S Couplers is good for you can all be found there.

Go Touring!  Surly Long Haul Trucker Complete
Surly Long Haul Trucker Complete
Our Price: $1,249.95

The industry's current gold standard for touring bikes, the Surly Long Haul Trucker, outshines everything else in its category.  As Surly blatantly puts it, "If you want to carry a lot of stuff while riding your bike long distances, you'd be hard pressed to find a better bike than the Long Haul Trucker."

The LHT has a tubeset and geometry specifically tailored to the needs of a bike that's going to be loaded with 100 lbs of gear yet can still be ridden bare without feeling like your riding a yacht.  There is a braze on for just about everything you could ever want (pump peg, 3 water bottles, racks/fenders front and rear, extra spokes on a chainstay - nifty!) yet the frame doesn't look or feel laden with unnecessary features.  The larger sizes (56 and above) are available with 700c or 26" wheels while the smaller sizes (54 and below) have 26" wheels.  This allows for an optimal weight distribution, center of gravity and handling for every size and also allows smaller riders to both easily straddle the top tube and avoid having toe overlap - even with fenders on the bike.

Equipment is kept practical and simple, yet is very high quality for a bike of this pricepoint.  Keeping with the touring mentality, loose ball XT hubs are easily servicable yet have good seals to keep the grime out while the Dura-ace barend shifters provide unparalleled reliability as well as an option to easily switch from indexed to friction shifting in case your derailleur goes South without a suitable replacement.  That isn't likely to happen, however, as Shimano's XT derailleur spec'd on the bike is designed to see years of hard use on a mountain bike where it is regularly exposed to conditions much worse than your likely to see on your average tour.  Intelligent choices are made elsewhere on the bike as well such as cheap yet functional Tektro cantilevers and levers, strong Alex rims, a basic yet high quality crank from Sugino with tried and true square taper interface, and aluminum bar stem and seatpost in a refreshing silver (which is the new black).

Comes in Truckaccino and Blue in almost a million sizes... 
Truckaccino is being phased out and is being replaced by black.

42cm, 46cm, 50cm, 52cm, 54cm, 56cm, 58cm, 60cm, 62cm 
We keep 46cm through 60cm bikes in stock ready to be ridden.

But don't listen to me, our shop manager Bob says, "It's fantastic, it's totally awesome and a great deal.  It's like XT and junk ...and a grand!"
Pedal a Pick-up.  Surly Big Dummy Complete
Surly Big Dummy
Our Price: $2,449.95

Surly's Big Dummy is a sport utility bike designed to carry a lot of stuff easily.  The bike comes with Xtracyle's V-Rack bags and snapdeck.  You can easily carry 6-8 bags of groceries, a couple of passengers, camping gear, or whatever you can think of.  It's the bicycle equivalent of a pick-up truck. 
The Big Dummy is shorter, has less rolling resistance, more manuverable, and more versatile than a bike and trailer.  It has a much larger cargo capacity than a rack or racks, and the weight is low and centered between the wheels. Xtracycle has accessories available designed to for everyting from kids, ladders, surfboards, or other bikes.
The Big Dummy rides well too much more like a standard bike than we expected. The wheelbase is longer than normal, but still much shorter than a tandem.  The frame is stiff and strong despite the additional length.  You won't find any unwanted creaking or swaying with this bike.
If you don't have a car or want to be able to make more trips by bike the Big Dummy will make your life easier.
 
Surly specs some nice components on the Big Dummy including Avid BB7 disk brakes, Surly Mr.Whirly crank, Shimano LX shifters and front derailleur, Shimano XT rear derailleur, Salsa El Gordo rims, Salsa front hub, Shimano XT rear hub, and Schwalbe Big Apple tires.
