Surly Ghost Grappler Review: Risky Business

Feb 2022 · Logan Watts

The Surly Ghost Grappler is a dedicated drop-bar trail bike built for bikepacking, singletrack and all-day dirt rides. Here's our in-depth review...

Highs
  • Unique mix of stability, maneuverability, and comfortable long-ride geometry

  • LOOONNNGG front end provides options for flat bars or a better fit if you’re between sizes

  • Large frame bag space and plenty of mounts and provisions

  • Unique implementation of rear bottle mounts, handy for desert routes

  • Good value, considering today’s market

Lows
  • It’s not light, although it’s not too heavy

  • I found that the high BB makes it feel a little timid on steep, gnarly terrain

  • I wish they offered it with flat bars and stock 29er wheels and tires
