Overview
The Surly Straggler GRX 610 2×12 in Subtropic Algae is the kind of bike that doesn’t ask where you’re headed, it just silently judges you for overpacking snacks again.
Built for the rider who thinks “gravel” is just a suggestion, this steel workhorse runs Shimano’s latest GRX 12-speed drivetrain for smoother shifting than your camp buddy explaining why they deserve the last s’more. With room for fat tires, racks, and fenders, the Straggler is as ready for your daily commute as it is for your next questionable adventure. Feeling thrifty or fancy? You will soon be able to snag it as a more-accessible 11 speed CUES build or grab a frameset in either color, and go full mad-scientist with your own build recipe. Either way, it’s a Surly, so don’t expect it to behave or fit in a pigeon hole of riding conditions.
Features
Available in 650b (46-52cm) and 700c (54-64cm) wheel diameters for optimum rider fit
Racks and fender mounts, plus two standard and one three-pack bottle mounts on all frames
Updated thru-axle dropouts for improved stiffness and handling
Modern flat-mount brake mounts, internal dropper routing, and 44mm headtube
50mm tire clearance w/o fenders on 700c for confident, comfortable riding on eroded terrain
