With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Surly Karate Monkey 27.5+ Inch Wheel MTB Frameset - Black

Season:2017

Brand:Surly - Bikes/Frames

Code:fmsu-km-145-blkBLK

The Karate Monkey frame has recently gotten a makeover that includes the addition of features like internal dropper post routing, a new tubeset that uses the same trumpet tubes found on our Instigator 2.0, and a slight tweak in geometry that is more progressive and trail-oriented

The Karate Monkey uses a horizontal dropout with a derailleur hanger that features Gnot-boost spacing, which gives the rider the ability to run any kind of mountain bike hub they choose. 10x135mm QR, 12x142, or 12x148 Boost™ will all work in the Karate Monkey frame. The frame uses a 44mm headtube for broad fork compatibility and is ED coated for an added layer of internal protection.

If, at any point, you decide you want to throw on some skinny meats, standard 29” wheels and tyres can be swapped in with no issue. If you want to round-house kick some trail right in the face, the karate monkey is your sled.

Get after it.
