SSCX Only!

Mmm, true. EBB would be best.

Anyone have the Surly Straggler here?

@BareNecessities does

I've barely used mine yet, so can't say much about how it handles :-/

@BareNecessities what size? Any idea of weight?

Just so I can make sure the hook in the shed can take weight...

fuck off @dan

Pre-empting that pisstake...

Ha!

It's a 64cm and it weighs Just under 11kg/24lb ( including guards ).

Heavy for a SS set-up, but I could easily get under 10kg with a wheel and fork swap.

@BareNecessities thanks, that looks like a good size, nice build too

I'm not sure on the geo of the Straggler its all a bit long in the top tube :/

I think I would be a 61cm but no way of knowing really.

its all a bit long in the top tube

That's partly what drew me to it. lets me run a 110mm stem and compact drops, which I'd much prefer for something that has the potential to go off-road.

Blimey, that is some weight for a ss.

It is. I think the steerer tube is made of lead.

Although considering my other two bikes are 13kg & 14kg and I weigh around 107-109kg, I don't really notice.

I also live somewhere flat :-)

CAADX its then...

@Zed I've a Surly Straggler which I run SS for commuting, which put ideas of SSCX in my head... until I tried to pick it up. OK, it's got heavy ass 29er wheels on, but oh boy! She's a burly girl.

Ended up picking up a Singlecross cheap - are they shit? I suspect they are shit - with a view to getting muddy. Let's see how that goes...

The Hunter, very nice.

That might be a carbon seat tube?

Great now I want a Def Wish.

That Raleigh.
SOmeone put me out of my misery. How much over here?

It's a Raleigh USA bike, which is I believe a different company to our Raleigh, and isn't available here.

I've just saved you a £1500 or more. You can thank me later.
