Very nice! The innertubes/valves need some attention though

realized that aftee looking at the pictures

Looking FINE! Any pics of the massaged tubes?

Got my steamroller resprayed and had rear brake cable guide braze-ons added for single speeding. First time building wheels, enjoyed it! Looking forward to giving it a spin, haven’t ridden it in ages. It was the bike I had when I joined the forum, was living somewhere flatter then - hoping it will be manageable as a single speed here in Edinburgh!

That looks nice, this blue especially, silver and black mixed looks good here

Would like some more photos of this!

Looks lovely.

Thanks! Here’s a couple more from what was meant to be a quick spin round the block and turned into a 50km ride - forgotten how fun steamrollers are. I’ve been riding an LHT for the past 8 years or so - it’s great to be able to actually accelerate again! Most of the components apart from the wheels are from the first time I built this up - hence the wear on the cranks.

Nice build! Would be nice to add some Surly decals

Yeah, shame I didn't think of that sooner as would have been nice to have them under the clearcoat!

I love the finish on the blue paint - great build and looks like a lot of fun to ride.

On more steamroller

Really nice.

Anyone got a 56cm Steamroller for sale?

Upgrade -35mm Panaracer Gravelgrinder

Hi, could anyone help me figure out correct sizing , I think I might be between a 49 and a 53 @173 but there seems to be differing preferences on sizing up/down so I’d be grateful for any advice.
Cheers!

I'm the same height as you, when I had one I went with a 53, bit long, so just stuck a shorter stem on.
Best bet is find a local Surly dealer , see if they have either in store, just for a try.

@Karla riding a 49cm at 169cm. i guess there is wiggle room for both sizes in your case. either 49 with some spacers or 53 with short stem depending on taste and bar setup.
