Preamble Frameset
by Surly
Preamble Frameset – Skyrim Blue
Nothing More is Needed. Nothing Less Will Do.
The mission was simple: build a serious steel bike and give it only the attributes that truly matter. The result is the Surly Preamble — quick and comfortable on pavement, confident and compliant on rougher, broken surfaces. You don’t need to cut corners to make an affordable steel bike; you just need to keep things simple.
The Preamble is ready for racks, fenders, bottles, baskets, or bags. Smooth and efficient on asphalt, its double-butted main triangle delivers that classic Surly ride feel while standing up to life’s potholes and daily abuse. Make it uniquely yours — flat bars, drop bars, commuter build, weekend rambler — the Preamble welcomes it all.
On the road to steel euphoria, this is the gateway drug.
