An all-round bike with fat tires is a bike that is both: for off-road bike tours in the sand of the Bandenburg and cuts a fine figure in the city, because the fat tires simply offer an incredible comfort on cobblestones and also good grip. This bike looks like a 29er mountain bike hardtail, but the devil is in the details, Surly is building a 29-inch touring bike that is unique in its versatility: Hub or derailleur gears, mudguards, pannier rack and heavy-duty trailer can be used without any problems. A mount for Rohloff hubs is provided. The rear triangle spacing can be adjusted from 135mm to 148mm using the adapter supplied. The head tube angle is steeper than on modern mountain bikes, which not only leads to increased maneuverability, but also has a positive effect on steering behavior with luggage on the fork.
There are so many mounting options on this frame that you’ll get dizzy:
Countless eyelets on the frame and fork for pannier racks of all kinds, the Anything Cage or similar. carriers and bottle cages.
