SURLY MIDNIGHT SPECIAL FRAMESET LILAC
The Midnight Special is a road plus bike designed to provide comfort and speed on those all-day rides that extend well beyond fresh pavement. It excels on pot-holed, deteriorating pavement and the occasional long stretch of gravel. The Midnight Special’s 650b road plus tires eat up road chatter and absorb all the bumps in the road for a much more comfortable ride.

Description
So what is this Straggler anyway? The easy answer is to say that we added disc brakes to a Cross-Check and this is close to accurate. People have asked us to make a disc version of our highly versatile Cross-Check for a long time now and almost everything about the two are very similar. Straggler is slightly different, though.
The most obvious difference of course is that the Straggler has disc caliper mounts instead of rim brake studs. It’ll accept rotors up to 160mm. The rear dropouts are unique, too. They’re a partially closed horizontal design that accommodates singlespeed or geared drivetrains. They feature stop screws that thread in from the rear to further secure the wheel and to position the rear wheel for optimal shifting, plus a forward-mounted stop screw on the drive side to keep the wheel from slipping forward under the force of your gargantuan legs. The rear dropouts are spaced 135mm instead of 132.5mm like the Cross-Check simply because there are far more options for disc hubs in this spacing.
Straggler shares all of the Cross-Check’s braze-ons for fenders, racks and bottle cages. The Straggler's geometry is slightly different, with angles and tube lengths very close but not identical to the Cross-Check, but like the Cross-Check it's ready to take you just about anywhere.POA -

A true mixte frame with the double top tube/stays. Obviously offers lots of standover height and style as well. You’ll find the geometry is more sporty, than upright-comfy. Though it can be built up to suit either demeanor. Drop bars? Sure. Moustache bars? Of course.
The upgrade to fitting disc brakes opens this mixte to fitting many different widths of tires, so instead of being limited to 700c x 32mm road tires, you can experiment with a variety of gravel and touring tires as well.
– Tange Prestige heat-treated CrMo steel main tubes
– Sport touring geometry
– Matching lugged crown CrMo steel fork INCLUDED. Features low-rider pannier mounts.
– Rack and fender eyelets
– Tange/IRD Sliding dropouts allows for geared and single speed drivetrains
– 135mm hub spacing
– ISO disc mounts
– Fits 1-1/8? (EC34) external cup headset
– 27.2mm seatpost size
– 42, 50, 54, 58, 62cm (Center to top of seat collar)
– The 42cm size on the Rim Brake model uses 26? wheels, but all sizes of the Disc model will fit 700c wheels and fit tires as wide as 42mm. Though for smaller frames using 650b wheels will decrease toe overlap with the front wheel.
– Weight: Frame: 5.8 lbs(50cm) Fork: 2.35 lbs (350mm uncut steerer)

The Fog Cutter is an endurance road/road sport design. We designed it to fit fatter tires, but its geometry makes it handle like a road bike rather than CX or gravel bike. It can float you over chewed up asphalt better than most bikes in this category. This is the frame you want for grand fondos, long days in the saddle and the most demanding commutes.

The Smoothie HP is the “high protein” version of our Smoothie road frame that was part of our line for almost 20 years.
Extra large diameter, thin-wall Tange Prestige chromoly coupled with modern touches like thru-axles and compact geometry give this frame increased power transfer and road feel while still delivering a composed and plush ride at all speeds. The re-designed geometry combines a comfortable higher stack with a shorter wheelbase that rewards skillful riders.
Frame Features:
- Tange Prestige heat-treated double butted CrMo steel
- Extra oversized down tube and chainstays for greater pedaling stiffness
- Ovalized top tube for increased lateral stiffness and vertical compliance
- Size specific tubing (Larger diameter down tubes on the larger sizes)
- Comfortable high stack matched with a tighter wheelbase than the typical big brand endurance road frame
- Replaceable modular dropouts (12 x 142mm bolt-on thru-axle, fits flat mount disc brake)
- BSA Threaded bottom bracket shell
- Rear rack/fender mounts
- Max tire size: 700x32c with fenders
- Two water bottle boss sets
- 6 sizes: 48, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60
