Thanks for that tip - I'll look into the Jasco. I'd like to see those pictures of your Trucker!

The one labelled "Hybrid" is my current ride. As you can see, my chainstay length is longer even than the Surly LHT! The weight for my bike is kinda iffy; I don't know what the frame itself weighs. The whole bike weighs between 20-25 lbs. I think.
