So, I broke the frame on my KM a while back and finally got a replacement. Surly provided exceptional service and certainly earned my loyalty with the way the dealt with the warranty. Anyhow, I finished building up the new frame and took it out for shakedown yesterday. Here is a before pic (taken right after I broke the frame)and some taken yesterday. Nice to be back on a rigid s/s again! I dig the new color too.:rad:

Glad to see Surly took care of you. How did you break the old one, if you don't mind my asking?

Nice JBH. Looking forward to seeing that "chum bucket" red color in person.

I broke it on a roller. I hit the right transition, but I guess I weighted the front too much. Your wheels held up like a champ though.

Shanks, we'll have to get together for a ride soon.

Yes, once the monsoons end. Maybe Nickerson.
