Embark Beyond Limits: Your Unshakable Touring Partner
Crafted for adventurers who demand resilience on transcontinental treks or daily commutes, the reengineered Disc Trucker redefines reliability. Its ED-coated Chromoly steel frame—double-butted at critical stress points—fuses lightweight agility with unmatched corrosion resistance. Conquer rough terrains confidently: triple fork mounts haul extra gear effortlessly, while low-slung geometry and extended chainstays deliver unwavering stability under heavy loads.
Built for Real-World Endurance
– All-Season Adaptability: Clearance for burly 700x47mm tires (fenders optional) tackles gravel, mud, or urban potholes.
– Smart Utility: Brazed-on fittings support racks/fenders + spare spoke holders—plus Dynamo hub routing for endless lighting power.
– Modern Control: Captured 12mm thru-axles paired with TRP Spyre C disc brakes offer precision stopping in rain or dust.
Rider-First Engineering
Higher stack height eases back strain on epic rides, while slimmed stand-over clearance simplifies mounting/dismounting. Shimano’s Sora/Alivio 3×9 drivetrain masters steep climbs, and tubeless-ready Alex Adventurer wheels wrapped in Surly ExtraTerrestrial tires absorb vibrations silently.
