Stolen Surly Long Haul Trucker + Burley Trailer

Stalwart Citizen and exceptional hand model Andrew Corson sent this troublesome note this weekend. Please be on the lookout, and kneecap any motherfucker(s) who might be riding said rig:

Stolen Bike and Kids Trailer, NE MPLS
Stolen from a garage at 11XX NE 4th St, Minneapolis

Surly brand bike. Unmarked Long Haul Trucker model, with braze ons on fork, chainstay, and under down tube. Mostly black parts include XT/Alex Adventurer rims, XT deraileurs, ITM stem and drop bar, Continental Contact tires, WTB Siverado saddle, Ritchey seatpost. Silver Sugino triple crank. Bar end shifters. Black Planet Bike fenders. Black rear Surly Nice rack w/knog light attached. A black and orange Kryptonite u-lock was on the rack. The frame had non-standard “surly’ decals on the downtube and a black and white face decal on the seat tube. 2 water bottles, one plastic, one stainless steel. The frame was a prototype, no may have had no serial number (would be located on the underside of the frame, on the bottom bracket (crank axle casing).

Attached to the bike was a Burley Encore child trailer, black, yellow and blue. It had no front or rear reflectors (it did have wheel reflectors), and there were no wheel guards installed in front of the wheels on the frame. Inside were 2 glass baby bottles, a coil lock and a red target shopping bag with a pump, bicycle tube, and small tool kit. This trailer belonged to Max, and he used it all the time. This is a real bummer.


Stolen sometime Saturday night June 6/7.
