Surly just launched a new Straggler, and they're using the word performance to describe this gen Straggler, which is new

After a decade, Surly’s cult-classic drop-bar do-everything bike finally got a thoughtful refresh. Find our full Surly Straggler review here.
A long-overdue update that still stays true to Surly’s DNA
Modern geometry changes are refreshing
New dropout design replaces the old headache-inducing one
Solid component spec on the 1×11 build
Lots of compatibility (dropper, 2x, suspension fork, fenders, racks)
Front-center is a touch short for my liking
Direct 160mm flat-mount brakes (while future-proof) won’t work on many aftermarket forks
Toe overlap is pretty bad
Could use a few more mounts (especially on the fork)
Not setup tubless out of the box

The updated Surly Straggler gravel bike blends quirky charm with modern versatility, making it a fun bike for riding everywhere, from pavement to singletrack.
Modern gravel bike geo and plenty of frame mounts
Smart build for tackling everything from road riding to singletrack surfing
Jack of all trades, master of none
Would prefer traditional thru-axle dropouts rather than open ones

Balancing on-road efficiency and off-road ruggedness, this steel 'rough' road bike is hard to beat for versatility
