except the P is Vertical to fold flat. my trekking bars are almost horizontal (bike friday regular threadless stem.. )

Can I ask for specific chainring when I purchase/order bike?
you have 3 factory choices 44, 50, 54t.. but the newest crank uses a standard 130bcd type replaceable chainring .

others have substituted a Shimano spec 39t , wont have the trouser guard attached to the chainring like the new style do.

Surly's Stainless steel chainrings are nice on single ring setups.. any thing from 39 to 50 t will do ..
I use a 38t-110 on another bike.
my Bike Friday uses an aluminum alloy Vuelta 53t 130bcd.

Once its in your hands you can change the whole crank out too , just get the chainline right ..
