Surly Straggler Large steel commuter touring bike

  • This is my fully custom-built destroyer of gravel and Randonneurs wet dream. See full spec below, any questions please ask.

    • Surly straggler steel frame with Chris King threadless headset and top cap, HOPE silver spacers.
    • Wheels are custom built HOPE 20 Five rims with Sapim Spokes. Rear hub is HOPE PRO 4, front hub is SP Dynamo PV-8 hub, tires are Clement Xploro MSO 40s, HOPE skewers.
    • Ritchey classic D bars with Brooks leather tape, Thompson 10 degree 100mm stem, Thompson Seatpost, HOPE Seatpost clamp
    • HOPE 4 arm crank with 24mm axel, Race Face Cinch BB
    • Ultegra 11 spd 6800 long cage derailleur with Wolf Tooth RoadLink to make it reach the 11-36 SRAM lowest gear.
    • 105 11 speed 5800 shifters
    • TRP Spyre disc calipers and HOPE rotors
    • Finishing accessories include SKS full-length guards, WALD basket attacked to a separate rack which works much more securely than the Mecano arms WALD provides. Custom fitting for extra neat Dynamo light which is an IQ-X Silver headlight. It also comes with an integrated CRANE bell as a headset spacer. The bottle cages are both King Cage Titanium

    Since these pictures were taken - the Brooks saddle has been swapped out for a Selle Italia stripped back carbon saddle (pictures on request) and I'm chucking in some chunky flat pedals. The brake cables could do with replacing simply from being stored (in a dry indoor environment) for a bit too long right after cleaning so some liquid may have been sat in the cables.

    Looking for £1200 ONO, can deliver in London

  • morning, what is the arms length for crankset?

  • 170mm crank arms

  • What size is the frame?

  • the whole bike is a bargain, GLWS

    Dibs crankset if split :)

    EDIT: Wrong length, UNdibs

  • Provisional dibs, pending size

  • Hi mate, I have centre of BB to top of seat clamp at 59.5cm and seat clamp to floor approx 85cm

  • Thanks, do you know which overall size it is? 54 / 56 / 58 etc? If not, could you measure the top tube as per the geo chart on the Surly site? Cheers

  • Hey man, so the frame is second hand and at a guess maybe 5 years old. I built it up with new parts and have done 2,000k on it roughly. Having a look at the geometry I think it’s most likely a 58cm. I will measure the top tube for you when I’m back tonight.

  • Thanks. Looking at this, you might be able to flip it over and read it on the BB shell.

  • Top tube from weld to weld measures at 56 and tip of saddle to centre of bars is 54. BB shell reads 56

  • Thanks, I'll PM you.

  • Yeah man PM me and I’ll give you my WhatsApp

  • Second dibs

  • A novel way of measuring frame size.
