Surly Bikes
I know, I know. More than one blog post in a month? Are we on speed or something?
Here's the sitch:
The 1x1 Rat Ride, later renamed the Surly 1x1, was our very first frame. Holy crap. When was that? A lot has probably happened since then. We thought about it for a while with our tongues sticking out, sat down, chewed on our pencil stubs, did the math, and discovered that in the universal language of mathematics there is a simple equation to explain it.
1x1=11.
Hard to believe but Surly turns eleven years old this year.
Hardened blackhearts though we are, we nonetheless felt that a little nod to our staying power and your support over the years was in order. No, we're not buying you all drinks. In fact you'd need to buy this bike with real money. Still, we think many of you will take one look and agree it is fully rad. Consider, for example, 24 x 3" slicks on Large Marge rims. If that don't rev your deal you might need to check your pulse.
Though I am linking the associated webpage where you will find all you need to know about the Rat Ride 11 year anniversary bike, I feel the need to highlight that this is not necessarily a collector's piece. It is super fun to ride. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up and not letting it rot away protected from harm. Ride it. Love it. Go here for specs and and text. Please note that the photo is of a prototype and shows silver spokes and white hotpatches on the tires. The production version has red hotpatches and black spokes.
They are in stock now. Call up your local shop. Remember: there are not a ton of them available, and once they're gone they're gone.
Alright, back to my whitecross.
