Surly Bridge Club
Best versatile adventurer for mixed-terrain touring and bikepacking trips.
This is the ultimate 'do-anything' rig for riders who refuse to choose between pavement and singletrack. It trades the twitchy speed of a dedicated road bike for rugged, rack-ready stability, making it the perfect companion for those who prefer their tours to include a few unplanned detours through the woods.
