Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

Love that Surly. Although it feels heavy even to look at it.

Thanks. It's holding up pretty well on the tour too. Have had a few issues with the front rack, mainly shearing the bolt in the fork leg, on a long, rough descent (we've been riding 90%+ gravel in the mountains of southern Spain, waiting in algeciras currently for the wind to drop, so we can get a ferry to ceuta. Hopefully tomorrow), so have had to remount it from the top fork-end braze-on. Also the front mudguard stay failed due to fatigue, from the vibration, so is patched up with cable ties for now. Planning on fabricating a new rack mounting solution and some steel mudguard stays if I can find a workshop in Morocco.

@dangeek although it looks heavy, it's actually surprisingly light-feeling to ride. I think the carbon rims and tubeless tyres make a big difference there. It weighs somewhere around 10.5kg with racks etc. However it's at about 40kg right now... this picture was taken on the first day, riding away from the airport.
