Discover the thrill and freedom of the open road with Surly's innovative 'Pack Rat' mid-distance tourer bike. Designed with a focus on front-loading optimisation, this beauty is engineered for efficient portage and balanced weight distribution, ensuring you enjoy a smooth, nimble riding experience regardless of the cargo load.

Bike-touring or commuting with a heavy load? No worries. The Pack Rat's front cargo-specific design puts your belongings at easy reach and maintains optimal weight distribution for better control and stability. The experience and knowledge gained over the years have enabled us to prevent awkward steering issues, making your ride safe and enjoyable, even when carrying a bag full of groceries.

What's more, you don't need to saddle it with your week's shopping every time you want to take a spin. The Pack Rat's design is such that it rides great even without cargo. However, if you're the type who likes preparing for all eventualities, the complete bike version comes with a 24-pack rack included.

To keep the load centre low, improving handling and ride feel, we have fitted smaller diameter wheels ? 26"" for smaller sizes and 650b for larger ones. The Pack Rat's fork incorporated handy internal routing for generator hubs, so you're all set for those moonlit adventurous rides into the night.

Whether you're a dedicated commuter, a credit card tourer, a fan of quick overnight camping trips, or someone looking to relish freedom from burdensome backpacks, look no further than the Surly Pack Rat. It's the perfect companion for your on-road explorations and everyday rides.
