Why a disc brake touring bike?

Surly Disc Trucker

The Disc Trucker enjoys the same legendary reputation as the Long Haul Trucker: it is one of the best-riding and most attractively priced drop-bar touring bikes on the market. But sometimes luggage, climate or terrain demand more braking power than a classic rim brake LHT can offer.

This is exactly where the newly revised Disc Trucker comes in. With reliable braking power, numerous mounting points and shortened chainstays, it offers more stiffness and more agile handling when cornering. Improved fit, optimised handling under load and modern thru axles make it a bike that will reliably get you through everyday life - or help you escape it.

⭐ Highlights & features

- Dynamo cable routing on the fork, plus three-pack mounts and plenty of eyelets for pannier racks, mudguards, bottle cages and more

- 12 mm thru-axles for greater stiffness and stability when fully loaded

- Shortened seat tube and slightly sloping top tube for better standover height

- Higher stack for a more upright, comfortable riding position on long rides

- Truck Stop Bar and tubeless ExtraTerrestrial tyres for safe handling and reliable traction

- Flat-mount hydraulic disc brakes for maximum braking control

- Spoke holders on the seat stays - perfect for long tours

- Removable Surly kickstand plate included in the scope of delivery

- Frame sizes 42-54 cm with 26" wheels, 56-64 cm with 700c wheels

- Tyre clearance:

- 26" × 2.1" with or without mudguards

- 700c × 47 mm with or without mudguards

🟩 Short summary

The new Surly Disc Trucker is an uncompromising touring bike for anyone looking for maximum reliability, modern braking performance and endless mounting options. Whether travelling the world, daily commuting or light gravel - this frame is built to last for decades and master any challenge with confidence.
