Very cool, very expensive.
Surly offers the Pugsley. The complete bike http://surlybikes.com/bikes/pugsley_complete/ retails for about $1500. Frame sets are around 5 or 600. Their sister company, Salsa, has the Mukluk. http://salsacycles.com/bikes/mukluk/ Salsa bikes are typically a few bucks more than the Surly counterpart. A neighbor of mine has been doing some contract work in Sydney, Australia and has spotted two different Pugsleys there. I have yet to see one in the wild. -- Scott Loveless http://www.twosixteen.com/fivetoedsloth/ __o _'\<,_ (*)/ (*) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
