surly-karate-monkey-front-suspension-bike, Multipurpose Hardtail Mountain BikeKarate Monkey delivers a resilient, lively ride on all sorts of gnarly terrain. Its frame is a highly-versatile canvas for whatever dirty masterpiece your brain cooks up. According to our computing machine (Thor) it can be set up in approximately 487 different configurations.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.Modern trail standards: dropper post compatibility, 44mm headtube, Gnot-Boost rear spacing, thru-axles, suspension corrected forkCompatibility with most mountain bike standards makes it the perfect parts bin bike (no rim brakes allowed though)Clearance for 29" x 2.5" or 27.5" x 3" tires FRAME SPECS:Frame Construction4130 Chromoly, Natch tubing, double-butted main triangle, trumpet flared tubes, TIG welded, ED coatedFork Construction4130 Chromoly, Natch tubing, double-butted tapered fork blades, TIG welded, ED coatedRear Dropout ConfigurationHorizontal slotted with optional vertical dumpoutRear Hub Spacing"Gnot-Boost" 145mm12 x 142mm or 12 x 148mm (Surly axle included)10 x 135mm with Surly 10/12 Adapter Washers (not included)Front Hub Spacing15 x 110mm (Surly axle included)Rear BrakeDisc - 51mm I.S.
