How does the Crosscheck ride BTW, I can't decide between it and an Il Pompino. Not that I'm going to purchase it anytime soon, just another piece of information for the list
No problem. As far as the ride goes, I love it. Good old reliable, comfortable steel. Lots of room for fat tires. Spends most of it's time on the road but is fun on the dirt too. Heard good things about the Il Pompino and looked at that when I got the Surly. The lack of rack mounts and tire clearance turned me off because I wanted a bike for occasional touring and off-road stuff.
