The rear brake placement won't work with my Bikes@Work trailer. I guess that will help with sales of Surly's trailers, but this bike is off my "next bike short list".

Surlys are very popular bikes among enthusiasts. I imagine the ugly paint and ugly decals are designed to suppress the burgeoning demand, allowing them to maintain a high quality control for those who aren't concerned with such things.
