Surly Cross Check CX Do ALL Bike

Product Description

Surly Cross Check Complete. The Cross-Check was the third frame we ever offered & we offered it as a complete bike a year after the introduction of the frame. It&8217;s a cyclocross bike by category but we try to design a lot of versatility into our stuff. You can ride it on the road or off. It&8217;s got lots of space for fat tires & for fenders. It does as good a job getting you across the country as it does getting you across town. If you get bored with how it&8217;s built change it. It can be a geared bike or a singlespeed or fixed gear. Big tires? Check. Skinny tires? Check. Neither the frame nor the component spec of the bike have changed much since we introduced it almost a decade ago because&8230;well why should it? We have made a few changes & updates over the years when those changes were either necessary or just plain a good idea. For instance we added mid-blade eyelets to the fork for mounting a front rack. This isn&8217;t a touring bike per se but it will handle lighter touring loads & a front rack can make that easier. This year we gave it a new fork crown too with threaded eyelets for adding&8230;things. Need a place to mount a spare light? Got a mini rack that needs anchor points? You&8217;re covered. There&8217;s a reason we still offer the Cross-Check after all these years. The frame is comfy & tough as nails. We continue to hear from people who have made the Cross-Check their default go-to bike simply because it performs so astonishingly well. It&8217;s one of the best riding most versatile bikes around.
