Big Dummy vs Edge Runner

Did Surly & Xtracycle have a falling out? Seems as though they've gone in different directions. I don't really care, just wondering. I have a 2008 Big Dummy that I really love, but it looks like I need to go to Surly to upgrade equipment. I really admire Xtracycle for what they've accomplished.

What do you mean? Are you trying to get new accessories? If so, Surly uses the Xtracycle standard so no need to limit yourself to what Surly offers.

I didn't think I had to, just wondering.

It's a Capitalist Market place , they are companies competing for a share of the Market for Cargo Bikes .


Edge Runner offers a lower load C of G, lower gears, and a stronger back wheel, simply by adopting a 406, 20" rear Wheel .

and designing The Frame around it ..
