Wow nice bike............I have an older blue Surly LHT and love it. My daughter wants me to build her a single speed out of some of my junk parts for use at college. Her senior "car photo" was her present bike an 80's vintage mountain bike she purchased herself and rides everywhere. You are on the right track starting her early with a decent bike.......very cool ! : )
