Straggler 650b Frameset

The Straggler is tuned for cross-over exploration on a wide variety of terrain conditions. It’s a day-tripper and a weekender. It’s a ‘rough road’ road bike, a cyclocross bike with no pretense about racing, a utilitarian townie, a light-duty touring bike and an all-weather commuter. It’s a steel gravel bicycle that thrives on the road. And when you get tired of one set-up, you can swap parts around and turn it into something else. Think of it as a “mountain biker’s road bike.” If you only have room for one bike in your life, Straggler can (and should) be your one and only.

The Straggler’s capabilities go well beyond asphalt. It also lends itself well to light touring setups. We're talking frame bags, seat bags, and "credit card touring” rather than full-blown touring. Straggler also handles our 8- and 24-Pack Racks well, so you have some heavier-duty loading options.

The Straggler shares all of the Cross-Check's braze-ons for mudguards, racks and bottle cages, and like the Cross-Check it's ready to take you just about anywhere. 

• Mudguard eyelets at the dropouts, front and rear rack bosses and dual water bottle mounts, downtube shifter mounts
• 100% Surly proprietary 4130 chromoly tubing. TIG-welded, double-butted main triangle
• Forward-exiting horizontal dropouts with adjusters give you singlespeed compatibility and wheelbase adjustability to help you fit the tyres and fenders you want to run with that drivetrain you want to run.
• The frame is ED Coated for increased life expectancy
