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!"

Soma Double Cross Dream Commuter

Our Price: $2,049.95

We built up this Soma Double Cross show bike as our dream commuter bike. It's got just about everything you can think of, and a bunch of stuff you did not realize you needed.

The frame is a 54cm disk brake compatible Soma Double Cross. The wheels are built with a Shimano Dynamo hub in the front, XT in the rear, Salsa Delgado cross rims, and Schwalbe Kojak tires. The Shimano Alfine hydraulic disk brakes provide lots of stopping power, and will keep working well no mater how wet it gets or if you decide to get a bit muddy. The Sycip Wonder Bar, leather grips, and Cardiff Wessex saddle will keep you comfortable. Shifting of the 14-25 straight block cassette is by a nine speed Shimano Dura Ace shifter mounted on a Paul Components Thumbie. The SRAM Courier 300 crank is light and stiff, and the Paul Components chain keeper makes sure that the chain never comes off. The grippy MKS touring lite pedals make sure your feet never come off either. There is a Nitto R-15 rear rack to carry your load, and Honjo hammered fenders to keep you dry and looking good. A Busch Muller Lumotec IQ Cyo R N Plus lights your way and will even stay on for 5+ minutes when you get there. We also added a Pletscher double kickstand for good measure.

If you want one in a different size just let us know and we'll make it happen.
