Default Surly touring frame


wandered into Peter Moore cycles today. he was building up a wicked (an
cool coloured drab olive green) Surly (cant remember exact nam
dooooh!).
Larger sizes were 700c and smaller were 26". heaps of clearance, ever
eyelet you could think of and even classic spoke holders on the lef
chainstay!
and 'only' $675 which if you priced against a custom frame or othe
'exotic; is a killer price. Had V/canti bolts too. darned nice...

(sure I'll be on one of them when im 'old'. Oh, crap. just turned 37
too late!!!

Good stuff, and I thought Surly mainly did trials stuff. Bought a lovely
47x56cm roadie frame at Petes this week. It' red, to make me go faster.
See you out there soon...

Hmmm... All 5 of my bikes (only 2 actually are going) are red. I'm
still really slow. What's with that?
