Surly CC with Ultegra

This is a 54cm Surly Cross Check in Robin Egg Blue. This frame and fork is lightly used and is in perfect condition and of course in Surly fashion it is built with 4130 cro-moly tubing and has all of the braze ons to mount fenders and racks that make this a very versatile commuter, cross ride, touring machine and daily rider. All of the SURLY stickers have been removed except the pair on the forks and seat stays. I believe this frame to be a ‘10-’11 as it has the rack braze ons mid way down the fork blades. Listed below is a detailed description of components I used to build this machine up.
