It's my commuter bike.

It's a Surly Cross Check, debadged (no decals).
I had a 10 speed Campy chorus group laying in a box, so on it went. Along with my old brooks.
Built it with really strong Velocity Dyads on 240 hubs. 700 x 35 rimbo tires.
Caradice longflap, with bagman rack. I keep the full rack on it because when I want panniers I just attach them.


I know it's over kill, and heavy, but it rides REALLY well.
I'm very happy with it, with just the Caradice bag on it. With the full panniers, not so much!
