Surly Long Haul Trucker
2008
Description
The Long Haul Trucker is built, as you might expect, as a touring bike. But it does a lot of other stuff good too, like commuting, day trips, double centuries, and of course beer runs. We set it up with a triple crank, a reasonably wide-range rear gear cluster, and large-ish, comfy tires. Add racks and you’re ready to haul. We mean it. The frame is designed to be stable and supple fully loaded with gear. Other bikes, 'converted' touring bikes you might call them, simply don’t handle big loads as well. The Long Haul Trucker, like all our frames, is steel, because steel rides way better than aluminum or carbon fiber, and for less money. It’s got rack and fender mounts front and rear, three bottle mounts, even a spare spoke holder.

Any size under 54 comes with 26' wheels instead of 700c, and there is not enough room for 700c. The good news is that Fatties Fit Fine means you can fit a mountain bike tire on. I went to my LBS and we fit a 29' MTB tire on, with a centimeter to spare!

To clarify, 42-54cm accommodate 26" wheels and 56-62cm accommodate 700c wheels (so 54cm has 26" wheels).

I've known two people that have had problems with the rear hub M770. The wheel has needed to be completely disassembled and the hub sent back to Shimano in Irvine, CA for warranty. They send out a replacement hub, but then the wheel needs to be built up, on a brand new bike.
