Surly Steamroller 53cm £450

Posted on
  • Hello lfgss,
    With great sadness, it is time me and my trusty stead part ways for I am heading to greener pastures with rolling hills that require either gears or stronger knees. My steamroller has carried me many a mile across London as a commuter and California as a tracklocross racer. It was originally white, then the previous owner painted it blue, and then I painted it orange/pink. It definitely shows the scars and scratches of being a commuter, but as with most surlys, the frame is in perfect condition under the copious amount of paint.
    The good:
    -Chris King headset in a fancy limited edition color
    -Specialized carbon bars
    -mks pedals/restrap straps
    The bad:
    ***Needs a new rear wheel, the rear hub is starting to tear itself apart from a bad hub adjustment. It seized up a few years ago and couldnt ever get it perfectly tight ever since. Ive been riding on it like this everyday for about a year and a half trying to see how long it would last. Surprisingly there havent been any catastrophic failures, only the occasional ugly noise. Long story short, it would feel a lot nicer with a new hub at least.
    The Ugly
    -The aforementioned paint
    -The Helen Mirren spoke card.
    -The saddle, its comfortable, just not on the eyes

    Let me know if you have any questions/want better pictures. Dont want to part out.
    Thank you,
    Jake

  • about how tall are you? Surly sizing is always so confusing to me

  • How much for the force brakes?

  • how does £40 sound? They are both unfortunately missing the bolt that clamps the cable. I can look thoruhg my bolts to see if I can find one that would work

  • price reduction to 480 big ones. Im going to have to put to fb soon but would rather sell to this community.

  • and another one £450

  • The patina on this is great, lovely bike

  • rack ID? looks great

  • thank you! i made it myself

  • Realised I need to be looking for deep drop brakes so no longer required, GLWS.
