Surly Karate Monkey Frameset

The Surly Karate Monkey frameset is a true legend in the world of hardtail mountain bikes — a versatile steel frame built for riders who demand adventure‑ready performance on any terrain. Designed to accommodate both 29" and 27.5+" wheels, this frameset offers unmatched flexibility for custom builds tailored to your riding style.

Crafted from Surly’s signature 4130 CroMoly steel, the Karate Monkey delivers the ideal balance of strength, compliance, and durability. Its modern trail geometry makes it equally at home charging technical singletrack, flowing down pumpy trails, or loaded up for rugged bikepacking expeditions. With ample mounting points for racks, bottles, and gear, it’s as ready for multi‑day adventures as it is for all‑out trail sessions.

Whether you’re building your dream hardtail or putting together the ultimate off‑road bikepacking rig, the Surly Karate Monkey Frameset is the perfect foundation for limitless exploration.

Key Features:

  • 4130 CroMoly steel frame for durability, comfort, and ride quality

  • Modern trail geometry for confident handling on technical terrain

  • Compatible with 29" or 27.5+" wheels for build versatility

  • Multiple mounting points for bottles, racks, and bikepacking setups

  • Ready for trail riding, bikepacking, and everything in between
