Surly Bikes

The people at Surly are perhaps a bit crazy or weird, which can also be seen in the company name, Surly means grumpy or gnarly. In the end, it seems relatively difficult to define or categorize Surly as a brand. Their philosophy of being different gives them a lot of leeway for the development and design of their products.

Surly has chosen steel as the frame material, which on the one hand is very sustainable, but on the other hand also has a lot of inherent damping, which makes for optimal riding comfort. The guys from Surly are convinced that steel is the best material to produce durable, sustainable and comfortable frames, sustainable and comfortable frames. Size specific tube sets, custom butting profiles, own steel forks, luggage racks and many special and many special details in the design speak for the independence of Surly.
