Googling for review brings up a lot of people saying they are having problems losing/breaking spokes in the rear wheel. I don't know if this is a current problem, or it's just the few people that have problems that have posted reviews but warranty work could be something to consider if you were to get that bike.
I think a Surly Long Haul Trucker with electric assist would be pretty sweet for grocery runs with the kids on the bike or pulled behind a trailer.
