Make & Model: Surly Cross Check
Role/Main Use: Daily Workhorse (year round rural road commuting and pretty much any other ride where I need a bike capable of anything)
Owned since: October 2010
Number of Rebuilds: 4
Info/Backstory:
October 2010 as purchased (complete bike as spec'd by Surly, plus rack):
April 2011 (post-bike-fit: new bars, saddle and tyres; shorter cranks, added granny ring):
February 2014 (dirt drop bars, Tiagra STI levers, mudguards):
September 2015 (new handlebars, stem, saddle, seatpost, rear derailleur and cassette, plus bell):
March 2017 (Straggler front fork, dynamo disc-braked front wheel, plus dynamo lighting, compact handlebars). Will be looking to change the stem soon given the shorter reach bars here, but it's no bad thing being slightly more upright for city commuting.
