Look at it this way, it’s an improvement over every Surly thru axle drop out this far.

Finished relacing my $18 trek wheel to the Surly flip flop hub I’ve had in a drawer for years and now I have a nice set of wide rim-brake tubeless wheels for fixie shenanigans! I was really impressed at how nicely these built up. I kind of want to grab another set to hoard.

Is there any benefit to the new Surly having a dimpled chainstay for chainring clearance instead of a yoke? Or is that them cutting costs?

gotta be simplified manufacturing

which is just cost cutting with different geometry

Ohhhh you meant zits.

Zits aren’t nips. Zits are zits, nips are nips.

Yeah, barnacles, my bad

We also don’t know if Manute Bol or Mugsey Bogues had a regular amount of nipples. Maybe one of them had a reverse nipplectomy. You never know other people’s battles.
