Selling my 2017 Surly Karate Monkey bikepacking setup (Size Medium with 27.5 wheels). This is the bike that really got me into bikepacking, but I now have a few other bikes and this one isn’t getting the use it deserves. Rather than let it collect dust, I’d love to see it go to someone who’ll put it to good use.
I’m the original owner — purchased new from River City Bikes in 2017.
The bike has mid grade to high quality components and plenty of life left. It does need a tune up, which is reflected in the price.
Condition / Notes
- Needs new chain installed (new chain included)
- Shifting needs adjustment
- Both wheels could use fresh rim tape
- Front wheel currently not holding air
- Otherwise solid, well-loved, and ready for the next owner to dial in
- Fork could probably use a service
