If you're looking, Surly's got the older model (like mine) Stragglers on a 20% off sale:
- 650b (smaller)
- 700c (reg'lur)
- ps - and now I see they've got the model down Preamble on a killer sale too. If you don't know what bike you want, this is the bike you want.
Availability is short, so shop fast. And of course, you can just get the newer model – you know, the one with the thru-axle hubs – for a tad more. Worth it? Eh, that's up to you. The geometry on the older model is more road bikesque, but the newer one does have the thru-axles and hydraulic disc brakes.
Anyway, (a) you can't have mine!
and (b), the Specialized gravel bike is still up for sale. I'll take $450; contact me in any of the usual ways.
I'm gonna go adjust my front brake now. Mechanicals, they're cool and have a certain funk-factor, but yeesh.
