Welcome to the world of unhindered exploration with the Pugsley Frameset - a modern take on a classic by Surly - Bikes/Frames. Dreamt up in 2003 with the earnest desire to ride off beaten paths and traverse untouched terrains, Pugsley was the answer to the adventurous cyclist's prayers, transforming the realm of fat biking forever.

In today's avatar, the Pugsley is a more mature version, crafted with the discerning adventurer in mind. It embodies the essence of an off-road exploration rig - perfect for the serious tourist and survivalist in the most unforgiving landscapes. Appreciate the wider footprint, extended wheelbase, and surplus accessory mounts that this rig brings forth.

The rear design of the Pugsley cleverly imitates the clean-cut design of our other dirt touring models. Equipped with a 142 x 12mm rear dropout, it accommodates a dedicated Rohloff torque arm slot. And for those who prefer a traditional 135mm quick-release setup, simply utilise Surly 10/12 Adapter Washers. Despite modern upgrades, we've preserved the 17.5mm offset Pugsley's are famous for, extending it to the rack mounts for centred fitment over the tyre.

To spare you from constantly kicking your pannier with every pedal stroke, we've lengthened Pugsley's chainstays by 12mm. This change contributes to the impressive stability and incredible handling that Pugsley is celebrated for.

Total wheel freedom is what we offer; roll on our full 1x11 drivetrain and Edna 26 x 4.3” tyres included in the complete bike. And should you wish to find your own path, opt for a 26 x 4.8” rear tyre. Take control with our Moloko handlebar providing a multitude of hand positions and accessory mounting. Adventure awaits with Pugsley’s plethora of mounting options — Three-Pack Mounts, a water bottle mount on the seat tube, and front and rear rack mounts.

The 135mm-spaced fork of Pugsley matches the rear's 17.5mm offset, offering an unmatched wheel swapability in unfavourable conditions. As solemn adventure bike manufacturers, we assure you, Pugsley will get you home, no matter what! And as a friendly reminder, if you need 4.8” tyre clearance to match the rear, swap the stock fork with a Moonlander fork.

Experience the unexperienced! Embrace exploration with the Pugsley Frameset from Surly - Bikes/Frames.
