I can't anticipate of a bike aggregation that is consistently bearing added avant-garde cycling articles than Surly. From their new Dingle Cogs (two altered apparatus on a anchored cog) to the Pugsley anatomy to the Big Dummy (ala Xtracycle), who abroad has such an all-embracing artefact lineup? Better yet, their articles aloof apparent work. For instance, I've got a brace of Surly flip-flop hubs that I bought three years ago for about $80. I've abused the hell out of these hubs through beach on the singletrack and acrid dust on the winter roads. They accumulate rolling…
When I was attractive for a anatomy to body up as a anchored accessory for cyclocross, I was attractive for a frameset that could board advanced cyclocross tires, axle brakes, accept some blazon of accumbent dropouts and be beneath $500. The Surly Cross-Check fits this bill perfectly. Fender/mudguard eyelets, arbor braze-ons and derailleur hanger are all benefit points.
Just to appearance that every Surly anchored accessory isn't a Steamroller and that every anchored accessory doesn't accept to be a alley bike, I congenital this Cross-Check up as a anchored cross/commuter/winter bike. It did the job with aggressiveness and turns out to be one of the best able frames that I've anytime ridden.
What sets this frameset afar from the antagonism (IRO Rob Roy, On-One Pompino, Milwaukee One and others)? Beyond a cyclocross/touring geometry, and a CroMoly frame?
