A classleading touring bike, the newly redesigned Disc Trucker provides versatility and dependability on the daily commute or transcontinental excursion. Fork blade threepack mounts enable you to attach and haul even more stuff, and the frame features a low bottom bracket and long chainstays for comfort and stability while loaded down. With increased stack height and improved standover clearance, plus ample space for larger tires and fenders, it’s designed to go the distance.
Introduced in 2012, the Disc Trucker is widely considered one of the bestinclass touring bicycles available today. Truly at home on the road, it features updated geo and modern component compatibility, along with versatile mounting options that make it ideal for daily commutes and monthslong disappearing acts alike.
Built from Surly’s proprietary, touringcompliant ‘Natch tubesets, updates to the Disc Trucker include a shortened seat tube and slightly sloped top tube for better standover clearance, plus an increased stack height for a more relaxed riding position. Shortened chainstays offer improved stiffness and maneuverability around corners, while 12mm thruaxles provide a stiffer feel and greater stability when fully loaded.
To ensure the Disc Trucker continues to exceed expectations in terms of compatibility with modern product standards, its dropouts have been redesigned to accommodate flatmount disc brakes and captured thruaxles. An updated fork incorporates dynamo routing and threepack mounts for even more mounting options. Additionally, the 700c platform now offers clearance for 47mm tires for greater flexibility in tire options.
