Hi Vimal... Moving out of BLR, by any chance?  Or just ended up with lot of cycles?  :P

Surly Cross Check ... wow.  Looks like a 50-52cm frame?  (small for me... but great bike.)

The Psynyde Bike too is an awesome setup... Alfine internal gear hub.  wow.

Yup, might be looking at a move out and need to trim the existing collection.
But there is always a hope of an upgrade.

Surly cross check is a 52cm
The psynyde's a solid commuter/tourer setup. IGH, dynamo, lights etc.

Might even look for an exhange with a good MTB setup.

Sorry Mahesh for the late reply.
as of now the bike is being tried out, if it does not get sold off then will let you know on the saddle.
