Surly Karate Monkey 27.5" Rigid Mountain Bike (Organic Eggplant) (S)

Surly Karate Monkey Hardtail Mountain Bike Description:

Karate Monkey delivers a resilient, lively ride on all sorts of gnarly terrain. Originally designed as a 29er (and the frame that helped spark the 29” wheel movement), the latest Karate Monkey is designed to perform just as admirably as a 27.5+ rig as well. This allows you to pick your poison — provided your poison is having a really great time while permanently donning a shit-eating grin, of course.

• 100% Surly Chromoly steel frame, double-butted main triangle and 44mm headtube
