my monkey - a photo on Flickriver

my monkey

the most amazing ride EVER. i love it to death.

surly karate monkey with scrapped spare parts here and there, running 700x60 schwalbe big apple tires. i actually have a 2 speed setup: the rear freewheel is a white dos eno 16/18 dual freewheel, and the front is a converted sugino xd600. i took the granny and middle rings and replaced them with 30T/36T straight chainrings (no pins or ramps) and replaced the outer ring with a 36T width bash guard. this gives me an on-road gear (~75") and an offroad gear (~50").

the best part is that the other side of the hub can take a fixed cog. i have a 15T there for a good 82" gear, the same gear i use for flat centuries on my fixed gear road bike.

striking resemblance to ahearne, by design, natch =)
