This is my Surly Long Haul Trucker! All of the branding was removed by a previous owned who lived in a city and was concerned about theft, so I’m happy to have an anonymous bike!

      Thank you! It’s my baby for sure…I’m considering swapping out the handlebars for something like the Velo Orange Crazy Bars or the Koga Denham bars. I want something that gives me more of a swooped handlebar for day-to-day riding, but also drop-style hand positions for longer rides. I think that’s going to be my next big project.

        Good idea! I personally found that a more upright riding (due to the swoop) gives me much better awareness of my surroundings compared to riding with dropbars. Every bit helps when trying to dodge blind cars and riding defensively!
