This is a great touring bike. All the best and happy trails Colin, I wanted to share my new website and the information on “how to build your own Surly Long Haul Trucker” from the frame up. I just ride it and can’t stop.

Vorsprung Suspension’s Secus wows, offering coil-like performance from air-sprung forks. I recall that at 4am on the Dunwich Dynamo, I was passing two ladies on a hill, and we all were rather tired at this point. 1) What do you think about the Surly Trucker Deluxe (With S&S Couplers)? Additionally, I have included detailed steps on how to build a kickstand mount that won’t damage your chain stays. NOTE: You can ride your bike wherever the hell you want, but this is what we think this bike is best at. I wanted a one-compartment pannier that had no plastic attachments or zippers. Try the Paul Racer center pulls and you can slam really big tires in there. The entry carbon framed Giant Revolt with Tiagra and hydros is $175 more, Trek Checkpoint AL 4 with the same for $75 less… yeah different audience and fewer bolt holes, but it shows what can be done. In the meantime, there’s a lot of world left to explore, so we’ll just keep on Long Haul Trucking. I will say that being homeless on my bike for the last 5 years I have met enough other tourist who swear by their Ortlieb’s that I would recommend Ortlebs also even though I have never used them. I think I’m going with the LHT because of the slightly better gearing and better hight adjustment for the handle bars. The best feature that i encountered when deciding to buy a LHT, was the frame and forks option only. What matters is that I feel comfortable on the bike, and so I’m absolutely sure I made the right sizing and set-up choices. A bike shop told this person to size down for a touring bike… ?
Although I miss my first Surly, the LHT, I am just as please with the Travelers Check and I did take it to Italy with me in May of this year. The wheels, 26”, were built with HOPE front and rear hubs on Mavic A319 36 hole rims, by our very good friend and wheel builder. I am planning to tour Borneo ( Sarawak and Sabah) and Vietnam with my new LHT next year.
I handles really well loaded and the gearing is great for hills.
