Not that that's out of the way ... people here need reading comprehension lessons.
The bikes I pointed out are hand-made in the EU at the same price point as the Surly CC.
Are any of the bikes you listed as being handmade at the same price point as the CC?
People get angry but seem to fail to read what I've written. Reading comprehension in this thread is abysmal.
Seems like an appropriate place to mention that "Surly" is the name of a local brewery as well being the name of a local bike company. "Surly Brewing" approached Surly the bike company about using the name and the bike company was OK with it as long as the brewery agreed not to sell bike jerseys and sponsor cycling events.
Having met a few of the Surly bike people, I highly suspect that free beer was part of the deal. That would get them to agree to pretty much anything.
