Surly Grappler Details

PLEASE NOTE: Surly bikes are no longer available at BMCR.

But we've got something better.

If you were chasing the Ghost Grappler's blend of off-road capability and drop-bar fun, we can build a tailor-made steel bike just for you.

You get exactly what you want, perfectly suited to your riding. Check out some previous custom builds!

You've heard the expression 'built from the ground up', right? Well, the Grappler was built from the bars down.

Yup, Surly started with the handlebars -- Salsa Cowchippers, to be precise -- and designed the Grappler around them to create a dedicated drop-bar trail bike.

If you're expecting bags of tyre clearance, disc brakes, grippy tyres and multiple mounting points, you won't be disappointed. There are even mounts just above the drop-outs, plus a dropper post so you can quickly adjust your position to suit the terrain.

The Grappler loves gravel, but it really shines on singletrack and off-road touring. Stable, nimble and versatile, it'll take you off the beaten path and beyond.

  • Chromoly steel
  • 27.5"
  • Clearance for 27.5" x 2.8" tyres

What You Say

A massive thanks to Pete and yourself. I did not realise how smooth the Fondriest wasn’t before until I rode it on Saturday. 80k city to beach and back, super smooth and I think I was faster. Very happy. Now I know why you are booked out so much in advance. Will certainly be recommending you to all…Alex Bojko
