Product Overview
Check out the newest Karate Monkey. This bike meets all the modern trail standards with dropper post compatibilty, 44mm headtube, Gnot-Boost rear, spacing, thru-axles and a suspension corrected fork. Compatibility with most mountain bike standards makes it the perfect parts bin bike *disk break only. The complete bike comes with Surly's 27.5" Dirt Wizard tires but there's clearance for 29" tires, if you decide to go that direction. The Karate Monkey runs a Shimano Deore 1x12 Drivetrain and Tektro Hydraulic brakes.
"Karate Monkey delivers a resilient, lively ride on all sorts of gnarly terrain. Its frame is a highly-versatile canvas for whatever dirty masterpiece your brain cooks up. According to our computing machine (Thor) it can be set up in approximately 487 different configurations. Originally designed as a 29er (and the frame that helped spark the 29” wheel movement), the latest Karate Monkey is designed to perform just as admirably as a 27.5+ rig as well. This allows you to pick your poison — provided your poison is having a really great time while permanently donning a shit-eating grin, of course."-Surly
