I have upgraded it to 10 speed Tiagra and now built a second Cross Check as it is a fast, versatile and comfortable all rounder with a tough finish, more pics to follow of both

good build.Surly is the sturdyist ,no bull frame out there. It's nice to have one nice bike that you don't mind getting dirty(as opposed to just a beater)
