Just putting this out there to see if there’s any interest. I’m currently in Canada but will be moving back to the UK at the start of December. There’s not as much interest in fixed gear over here so I was wondering if anyone back home would like this frameset? I bought this a while back with the intention of building up a tracklocross bike but I spent most of the summer on my mountain bike and never got round to building this beast up. The frame has been in storage so has a few scuffs but is otherwise in new condition and has never been built. I was planning to run a disc up front so swapped out the original fork for a Surly Disc Trucker Thru-Axle fork which shares almost the exact geometry of the original. Included in the sale are the frame, fork and Surly seatpost clamp. Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions. I’m looking for around £500 O.N.O. Many thanks.

Price drop!

Up for sale is my custom Surly Steamroller. Purchased as a frameset at the start of this year I have built it up to be the perfect randonneuring bike for hassle free miles on back lanes. The bike has had very little use and due to work and other commitments I have decided that it's time to move on.

Spec is as follows:
Frame and fork - Surly Steamroller (59cm) in "Drink More Water" yellow
Headset - Hope
Wheels - Condor
Tyres - Panaracer Pasela 32mm
Cranks - Shimano 175mm
BB - Shimano square taper
Drivetrain - Dinglespeed: Surly Dingle sprocket (17-21) and Stronglight chainrings (38-42)
Handlebars - Pro LT (44cm)
Bar tape - Salsa Gel Cork tape
Stem - Pro LT (100mm)
Seatpost - Pro LT
Saddle - Charge Spoon
Brake calipers - Tektro R539
Brake levers - Tektro
Mudguards - SKS
Bottle cage - King Cage stainless

The bike is in very good condition overall with some scratches and paint chips around the dropouts from wheel removal and chain tensioning. The bike is located in Stirling, Scotland however I'm willing to deliver anywhere in Scotland if the right price is offered. I'm looking for around £450 O.N.O. If anyone would like to arrange a viewing or would like further pictures then please let me know either on here or by contacting me on 07866010023.

Hi all, I'm after a set of bombproof fixed wheels (100 mm front, 120 mm rear) with rims suitable for slightly larger tyres (32 mm). I've given myself a budget of £150 but can go higher for the right set of wheels. Let me know what you've got!

Cheers

I've just purchased a Steamroller frameset and I wanted to see whether anyone had a decent wheel set they'd be looking to sell. Obviously as the Steamroller has track spacing I need 120mm rear, 100mm front hub spacing. For rims I'm looking for something bombproof that can be ridden off road and will take a 38mm tyre (Mavic a119/a319/a719 or similar). I feel like I'm asking for quite a lot but this is as good a place to ask as any! Hope you guys can help! Cheers!

I'm sure it has been covered in this thread a few times but what size Steamroller would be appropriate for me at just over 6'2"? I'm thinking of going for a 59cm but how does everyone else feel with regards to sizing?

Up for sale is my 2014 Kona Unit singlespeed 29er. First thing I want to make clear is that this frame has been repaired after I found a small hairline crack developing on a weld on the drive-side chain stay. I had a sleeve brazed onto the frame by Mark Leadbetter (Google him) who is an excellent bicycle mechanic and handy with a welder! I decided not to respray this area of the frame as I prefer a bike with character so I have simply applied a number of coats of clear lacquer to prevent the area from rusting (see pictures). I am extremely confident in this repair and the chainstay is now probably stiffer than when it left the factory. I do however appreciate that this is extremely off-putting for some people so this is hopefully reflected in the price. I have owned this bike for over two years now and it has been my first real taster of singlespeed riding. The current build has been refined during my time of ownership with the aim being to create a bike that is resilient to the wet and shitty weather we get here in the UK. Where appropriate, bolts have been upgraded to A2 stainless and all bearings (apart from BB) are Hope.

The full spec is as follows:
Frame - 2014 Kona Unit Reynolds 520 Butted Cromoly (19")
Fork - Kona P2 29
Headset - Hope (3 rides old)
Stem - Raceface XC 60mm
Handlebars - Kona XC/BC Riser 730mm
Grips - Kona Racelight LOG
Rims - WTB ST i23 TCS
Front hub - Hope Pro 2 Evo with silver Hope QR skewer
Rear hub - Hope Pro 2 Evo (Trials/SS)(18 tooth Surly Cassette Cog)
Front tyre - Maxxis Minion DHF 2.5 3C MaxTerra EXO TR (set up tubeless)
Rear tyre - Maxxis Ignitor 2.1 EXO TR (set up tubeless)
Brakes - Shimano Deore (180 rotor front, 160 rotor rear)(recent service with new pads front and rear)
Cranks - FSA (32 tooth chainring)
Bottom bracket - Shimano XT-SLX BB70 Hollowtech II
Seatpost - Kona Double Clamp
Saddle - Charge
Pedals not included

The bike is in great working condition and is ready for the trails. I'm looking for £475 O.N.O. which seems reasonable considering spec. I'm based in Ambleside in the South Lakes so collection from there is preferable however I am willing to deliver the bike within a 50 mile radius of Ambleside for a negotiated mileage charge or I can post at the buyers expense. If anyone has any questions or would like more detailed pictures then please let me know either by sending me a private message on here or by contacting me directly on 07866010023. Many thanks

I hate to hijack a thread but does anyone have a 59cm Steamroller frame/complete bike for sale? I've certainly been inspired to build myself a multi-surface monster.

Super cheap 56cm Steamroller spotted on Gumtree for anyone looking for a project https://www.gumtree.com/p/bicycles/surly-bike/1281392124

@mostly_by_bike It's not a Steamroller but Triton have tiny Cross Check framesets in orange for £249.99 which is a bit of a bargain really. https://www.tritoncycles.co.uk/frames-forks-c6/road-frames-c47/cross-check-frameset-p17171/s50820?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=surly-cross-check-frameset-size-42cm-colour-dream-tangerine-size-42cm-colour-dream-tangerine-fmsuc42o&utm_campaign=product%2Blisting%2Bads&cid=GBP&gclid=CjwKCAiAjanRBRByEiwAKGyjZXumbrrJ3-07c9vmSPAVo362_wZ0n6pCgLJX01DjN97dpji8KuDtIBoCeioQAvD_BwE

Hi dude,

st (centre to top) - 58cm
tt (centre to centre) - 57.98cm

I'm 6'2" and a half. I think it's all dependant on what kind of riding you'll be doing. I think if I was mainly riding on the road I'd go for the next size up. For mixed-surface riding it has been spot on for me. Handles the gravel roads a treat. Hope that helps bud!

Cheers,

Tom

Up for sale is my 2013 Surly Cross Check in 58cm size. I have decided to sell as I’m looking to get myself a 26 inch expedition bike for some more ambitious tours I have planned. The bike itself is currently set up with drops, mudguards, a small front rack and a 1x9 drivetrain. I have run the bike 2x9 and with flat bars before, it really is unbelievably versatile!

Spec is as follows:
Frame/fork - Surly Cross Check 58cm
Headset - Cane Creek
Rims - Destickered touring rims, unsure of brand but suitable for +40mm tyres. Managed to spill a bit of paint on the rear rim as you can see from pictures (doh)
Hubs - Shimano
Tyres - Continental Tour Rides (can throw in some 40mm Schwalbe Land Cruisers if asking price is met)
Brake levers - Tektro
Brake calipers - Shimano Deore V-brakes
Gear shifter - Microshift indexed, braze-on mounted
Derailleur - Shimano Deore
Chainring - Blackspire Snaggletooth Narrow Wide 36t
Handlebars - Salsa Woodchipper
Stem - Ritchey Comp 110mm
Seatpost - Ritchey Pro
Saddle WTB

The bike is in good working condition however the frame is a bit scuffed from use. There are however no dents or big scratches and structurally the frame is sound. The bike is located in Ambleside in the South Lakes and can be viewed on request. I’m happy to post the bike to anywhere in mainland UK if the buyer covers the cost. I'm looking for £500 O.N.O. If you have any other questions please don’t hesitate to ask. Cheers!

I'm after a set of Jones loop bars. Let me know if you have a set going spare!

Cheers,

Tom

As per title I'm looking for a set of 700c steel forks with good clearance for tyres and guards and with canti studs. Forks will be going on a Surly Cross Check so will need a 1 1/8 steerer.

Let me know what you've got!

Cheers,

Tom

I'm ideally looking for a large Dawes Galaxy or something similar that can be run with v-brakes. I'm 6'2" so need something pretty roomy.

What have you got??

Is this still available bud?

As posted in title, I'm looking for a large touring frame which can easily run v-brakes as I'll be running a flat bar. I'm 6'3" so looking for a frame with a seat tube around 60cm.

Let me know what you've got.

Cheers,

Tom

After a Surly Long Haul Trucker in sizes 58 or 60cm. Preferably looking for a frameset but will also accept full bike.

Cheers,
