Can’t see the pics? Interested for a friend.

Good deal, if I hadn’t just built one I’d be on it.

cue @amey with life affirming, surly related thought- for use as a mantra, during this week’s meditation

Interested but let me look into surly geo. How tall are you, assuming the saddle height is set up for you? Cheers

Sweet sweet rig. GWS.

this is well priced, not the usual delusions of grandeur that comes with being a Surly/Condor owner

I am no longer a Condor owner...

I'm just shy 6ft. The saddle is a bit higher than my riding position as have been hanging the bike in garage by the saddle.

Surly website geo is pretty detailed, hope that helps. If you can be asked I'm happy for you to come and ride it.

Still a problem with pics? Seems to work ok for me

it was a shot worth taking.

Thanks v much. I'm about 6ft 2in. I will go away and look at details. Thanks for the offer of a test ride i might take you up on that if convenient... but don't let me hold back a sale.

You have no heart…

You only just realised this?

If you cut @amey open all you’ll find is a dynamo and an otherwise hollow vessel overflowing with last years bad tastes

Would 5'8" / 173cm be too short for this bike? Normally ride a 52 Cannondale CAAD12 but I don't mind going slightly bigger for more comfort.

I think the frame would be too tall if I'm honest.

me no like surly but this is cool

Dibs + DM’d

Some closer frame shots included. I've generally taped the frame to protect from cable rub and has always had full mudguards so the frame is well protected. The rear triangle has got some marking but no chips. Could be cleaner I confess, grease marks a plenty...
