That’s sick! Planning to get a surly big dummy, but this one left me to reconsider

A Big Dummy was my #1 choice (actually I'd have loved a Bullitt but $$$), but I couldn't find one used for a good price when I was searching. I feel like the BD is superior given steel frame and fork and 26" wheels (lower center of gravity). Better "lifetime" bike. But the Ute is fine too. A little lighter with Aluminum f/f, not that it matters when you're hauling 100lbs of kids. Thanks!!

If you get a Ute, just replace the Avid BB5 brakes! Not worth risking anyone's life on shit brakes.
