@eyebrows I spotted that the other day while looking for...something.
@busseynova I think it's called a marathon tour plus? It's not the cheapest one but one up from that. I've only ridden it on Tarmac on the rear, had it on the front before and rode it on tarred roads and fire track and once on muddy grass which it was terrible at but I knew it would be, otherwise performs as I expect it to. Rolls well, grip seems good though it did lock/slide a wee bit today on some steep greasy descending.

I think the Surly might be the bike I covet the most on the forum.
And also the time/ ability/ location to go and use it properly.
I've been staring at this for the entire time its been listed, for example:
