Surly X Blue Lug Steamroller frameset - Frank & Beans
$ 699.00
To celebrate their 20th anniversary, Blue Lug collaborated with Surly to release of a limited edition colorway of the beloved Steamroller frameset, inspired by 2011 Steamroller, which Surly aptly named Boston Baked Beans.
Because we're wicked rad, we were able to get our hands on some to sell in the USA!
The original workhorse fixed gear frameset, ready to take you just about anywhere. The Steamroller is made of double-butted 4130 cro-mo steel tubing and has road bike geometry with track bike features, like 120mm rear spacing, track-legal BB height, and compatibility with all track cranks.
It's got one set of bottle mounts on the seat tube, rack/fender eyelets on the rear dropouts and the entire frameset is E.D. coated inside and out - offering maximum protection from rust. And yup...it's got cable stops on the top tube. Don't like them? Stop crying and cut them off.
Every frameset includes a bonus sticker pack, and quantities are very limited!

Proper preparation of a new frame is an essential part of building up any new bike.
This process typically involves facing and chasing the bottom bracket shell to clean the threads and remove any paint, clearcoat overspray, or internal frame coating buildup before installing a bottom bracket, as well as facing and reaming the head tube to remove any imperfections prior to headset installation.
These procedures require specialized tools, and can be performed by any reputable bike shop in your area.
