Yeah, but it's stock as with the (my) 2012 Crosscheck, hence my point about Surlys claim of just needing to add the inner ring and new BB.... i do know people who have used a double just fine, just seems like* this *double isn't the right sort
Can I make my Cross-check into a triple?Yes, but you'll need to buy some stuff. The crankset that comes stock on our complete bike will accommodate a 74mm bolt circle granny ring. You'll need a 74mm BCD chainring, some bolts and spacers for it, and a longer bottom bracket (think 118ish) . You can probably get this done for around $100 at a bike shop. The stock shifters and front derailleur will work fine with it
