Surly Steamroller to Cross-Check Conversion
Question for everyone....

I have a steamroller that I'm trying to sell. Someone is interested in the frame/fork. Would all of the steamroller components work on a Cross-Check?

Seems like the bottom bracket/cranks should work....but what about the rear axle?

Thanks in advance

Your hub is spaced at 120mm, just eyeballing it you should be able to tell if there is an extra 10mm of axle length to put a 5mm spacer on each side for it to work on your cross check
