My New SUV (SURLY Utility Vehicle)

Thank you to Chad and the guys at Spoke N Sport for getting this bike together! I can't wait to put a few thousand miles on it this year.

I can go off road with it like your SUV, but probably will keep it on the street like yours.
I can haul a lot of cargo with it like your SUV.
I can only move one person with it (me). That's OK, there is usually only one person (you) in your SUV, too.
$4 gas is not a problem with mine.
This thing will get me wherever I need to go almost every day of the week.

Some details for the bike geeks....
SURLY Troll frame
Shimano SLX drivetrain
Shimano SLX hubs
Salsa Delgado rims
Easton seatpost
Easton stem
SURLY racks
Avid Disc Brakes
SKS Commuter Fenders
Continental Tires

Very nice! I've got stickers for you! Is there a bottle opener on it?

That is one sweet bike! I'm not sure MinusCar Project sticker can improve it, but seeing one on there will improve me!

AWESOME!

Love it. Maybe our orange vehicles will cross paths some day.

Sweet ride! Looks like a tank on two wheels.
