One more victim to the too-many-bikes-syndrome. I haven't used this
baby for a whole year but could not bring myself to put it on sale
earlier.

This is stock build from Surly (http://surlybikes.com/bikes/
cross_check) except for the tires (changed them to Schwalbe Marathon
Supreme 32s the moment I got the bike). The bike was bought in
Singapore in November 2009 and shipped over to Bangalore. It has just
under 3300 KM on it (including TFN 2009).

Surly calls it a 52cm frame, but it is sized more like a regular 54cm
(take a look at the geometry on their site). Should fit somebody from
5'7" - 5'10" tall.

No pedals, but I have a pair of Crank Brothers Smarty if you want for
Rs. 1000 (pair of cleats included).

The bike has 80mm stem, but I have a spare 60mm if needed.

The bike is in excellent condition. The tires from Schwalbe have been
pretty awesome too - not had a single flat in all the time I've owned
it.

Asking Rs. 62,000 for the whole build.
If you want the bike with the stock Ritchey Speedmax Comp tires it
came with instead, it is Rs. 60,000. I've used this set of tires on
trails exactly 3 times

I'll throw in a couple of black Bontrager bottle cages, Schwinn bike
computer and some inner tubes for free, if you are interested.

Send me a PM if you are interested.

I'm sure it was an obscene amount and BBC won't allow obscenity in public :P

Hey vasu,
 
I feel there is no obscenity in asking the price nor Ullas telling the price.
 
as iam not asking about Rajas Telecom scam, Kalmadi scam or Telgi Scam.

Lol I can tell you with confidence and after one quick 100k ride that this was worth all the obscene money spent. Infact, even though I'm broke, I'm spending more on this bike to pimp it up :D. Don't make Ullas take the bike back from me now ;)
