Long Termer: Surly Ice Cream Truck - Part 3

Mar 2016 · David Gould

It’s been several months since Sanny took delivery of his long term Surly Ice Cream Truck fat bike and decided to use it as his only mountain bike. It has proven to be quite the eye opener.

Surly Ice Cream Truck Ops Review

Dec 2015 · Joe Cruz

Surly Ice Cream Truck Ops Review... The ICT ridden and enjoyed during 5 days of fun trails in New Mexico's high country.

Highs
  • A fat bike that can turn, jump, and play.

  • Great, full on mountain bike handling with bikepacking bags.

  • Solid parts spec, ready to take out on long trips right out of the box.

Lows
  • An undeniably heavy bike.

  • Small main triangle.
