Surly Ice Cream Truck


Sorry for the delayed blog but that is what travel does for you.  Got up early and headed east and am prepping to spend next week in Oregon as well - no complaints at all!  Yesterday I teased today's blog with the post about Surly bikes and I figured that with winter right around the corner that a fat bike would be a nice post.  So today I ran through the options in my mind and came up with the Surly Ice Cream Truck:

The Ice Cream Truck has the ability to float over pretty much anything you’ll find out there be it snow, rocks, mud, sand, or rocky mud. But unlike our other, more terrain crawling fat bike models, the Ice Cream Truck’s geometry is trail approved and ready to rip.
The Ice Cream Truck is made out of our own proprietary 4130 CroMoly steel and is ED coated. ED coating is a process that leaves a coating that, externally, provides a solid foundation for paint while also providing an added layer of corrosion protection internally. However, we still recommend an additional treatment such as Frame Saver or Boeshield. Ice Cream Truck begins to differ from all of our other fat bike models from there.
The Ice Cream Truck frame is symmetrically spaced at 190mm. It features our MDS dropout system so you have the option of running a 197mm thru-axle, 190mm geared or a single speed rear end. The complete Ice Cream Truck comes with only the Shimano direct mount, 197mm thru-axle chips and framesets come with all three MDS chips.  It also features a 132mm wide PressFit 41 bottom bracket. Giving the Ice Cream Truck a PF41 bottom bracket allowed us to move the stays out and create a much stiffer rear end. The frame is spec’d with a 44mm headtube to give you options in the fork department and comes with a suspension corrected straight blade fork with dropouts spaced at 150mm with a 15mm thru-axle.
When we designed the Ice Cream Truck we borrowed elements from the Krampus and Instigator geometries to make this bike feel frisky and limber. The complete build rounds out this bike as an aggressive trail bomber. And with 4.8” tires on 100mm rims you have the option of going through instead of around anything in your path.
MSRP is $2,700 with an Ice Cream Truck Ops for $2,400.  We are open Thursday from 10-8 so come on down and check out our fat bike inventory and if the Surly interests you we can order you one in!

Tom's Top 10 2015 Bikes (Blogger Bill Adds 1) - SPECIALIZED FATBOY SE

The Boys at Chestnut Ridge playing in the snow

Yes there have been a lot of photos flowing in through the Tom's Pro Bike Facebook page and blog report and most of them have been of people riding their bikes in snowy conditions.  Most of the time those bikes are fat bikes and this is one of the largest growing segments in the bike industry right now.

Yours truly at the 1/2 way point of the 200k D&L Fat Bike Epic held in early December

There are many races around all parts of the country that are Fat Bike specific (3.8" or larger tires are required for entrance) and many more social group rides that you will find all over Facebook and their pages.


Today we are highlighting the Specialized Fatboy SE:

All the fun of a fat bike with the performance of a Specialized. The Fatboy SE combines a lightweight frame and fork with 4.6-inch Ground Control tires to create a geometry similar to Specialized 29er geometry for nimble handling in the most extreme conditions.
  • Fully butted M4 Premium Aluminum frame w/ up to 5-inch tire clearance is lightweight and nimble
  • Specialized alloy fork with airform construction is lightweight and stiff for precise handling
  • Fatboy SL, alloy single wall rims provide a lightweight wheelset to tackle any terrain
  • Specialized Ground Control Fat 26x4.6" tires roll over anything
  • Custom 2x10, forged alloy crankarm, w/ 100mm spindle for putting the power down
  • Tektro Aries mechanical disc brakes for precise stopping power in all weather conditions
  • SRAM X5, 10-speed, long cage rear derailleur for crisp and precise shifting

MSRP: $1,500.00

1AA-Indoor Series
Here is some updated information about the Winter Race Series.  It begins 1/12/15 and as a Thank You to all of our great customers we are offering 2 races free and the whole Winter Series for $150.00.  All you have to do is CLICK HERE and schedule when you want to ride.

If you are new to the Indoor Race Series this is a great way to get a feel for how it is run and if you are a Veteran then you can score 2 free weeks of racing.  Stop by the shop for more information or to check out where the races take place!

Winter Travel By Bike - SURLY ECR



You want to do some winter travel by bike do you?  Well one of the best options out there is the Surly ECR:

Attention bike camp/exploration nerds! Are you sitting down? Behold ECR. ECR is a sure-footed, multi-terrain, offroad-obsessed 29+ camp bike. It’s something of a lovechild borne of our Krampus, Ogre and Long Haul Trucker.
Like the Ogre, ECR can run racks, fenders and disc brakes simultaneously, front and rear. It’s compatible with singlespeed, full derailleur and IGH drivetrains (it even features a dedicated Rohloff torque arm mount) because the rear dropouts are just like those on our Ogre and Troll frames. Run what you like. ECR has multiple mounts on the frame and fork for water bottle cages and larger gear cages, so you can bring lots of water, stove fuel, milk, a sleeping pad, small mammals or what have you.
Even though we don't stock these currently they are able to be placed on order.  Stop by the shop for more information and how to best fit out this cool and reliable all around bike!

Are you planning on being out and about doing some running around today?  Want to stop by the shop and start your shopping or start working on your list?  Bring you bike along with you and drop it off for a Tune-Up and you can earn some Tom Dollars to use at Tom's Pro Bike.  As the picture above shows - purchase a complete tune-up and receive $15 Tom Dollars or purchase a Deluxe and receive $25 Tom Dollars to use in the store.  Tune-up must be completed by Jan 15, 2015 and the Tom Dollars are good until March 15, 2015.


Do you have a bike lover on your Christmas List?  Check out Tom's Holiday Specials.  If you are unsure of what to but pick up a Gift Card and let them chose from our inventory or get an idea from the Great Gift Idea section based on your budget.

We have some excess 2014 and older inventory that we are trying to clear out to make way for the 2015 models that are becoming available each day.  For 2014 you receive 10% off the MSRP and also a 10% Gift Card to use in the store.  We have financing available if you quality and we also have free lay-a-way: 20% down is all that is required to secure your new ride for the 2015 season and beyond.

Our 2013 and older inventory is marked down even lower as well.  It may not be as low as it was during our Reverse Auction Sale but you can still save a lot if we have your size and model choice available.

Travel By Bike Thursday - SURLY LONG HAUL TRUCKER



Are you in the market for a touring/commuting bike?  The you should definitely check out the Surly Long Haul Trucker:

Over the years our Long Haul Trucker has developed a devoted following. People understand and appreciate the LHT’s dependability and everyday riding comfort, whether they’re cruising to the store or lost in the middle of nowhere. It was designed in all aspects to go the distance in relative comfort while hauling a bunch of stuff.
The LHT is in most ways a typical touring bike. It has a low bottom bracket and long chainstays provide comfort and stability. It’s got all the braze-ons, from rack mounts to water bottle cage bosses to fender mounts to a spare spoke holder. Like all our frames, it’s made of CroMoly steel. You’ll probably never need to have the frame repaired, but if you do you’re more likely to find someone who can weld steel than someone who can weld titanium or aluminum. Repair carbon fiber in the middle of Mongolia? Good luck with that.

For more information on the Long Haul Trucker or any other touring/commuting bikes accessories stop by the shop.  We are open from 10-8 today.

SUMMER SALE STARTS TODAY

Travel By Bike Thursday - SURLY ECR



Are you the cyclist that loves to tour?  And loves to Mountain Bike?  And loves having a strange bike that will carry you through most terrain, weather, and elements all wrapped up in one bike?  Well I think the Surly ECR is just the bike for you:

Attention bike camp/exploration nerds! Are you sitting down? Behold ECR. ECR is a sure-footed, multi-terrain, offroad-obsessed 29+ camp bike. It’s something of a lovechild borne of our Krampus, Ogre and Long Haul Trucker.
Like the Ogre, ECR can run racks, fenders and disc brakes simultaneously, front and rear. It’s compatible with singlespeed, full derailleur and IGH drivetrains (it even features a dedicated Rohloff torque arm mount) because the rear dropouts are just like those on our Ogre and Troll frames. Run what you like. ECR has multiple mounts on the frame and fork for water bottle cages and larger gear cages, so you can bring lots of water, stove fuel, milk, a sleeping pad, small mammals or what have you.
It takes standard 34mm headsets and regular mountain bike hubs (100mm front and 135mm rear). It’s designed for full length housing to keep out the elements and keep brakes braking and shifters shifting on long treks in rough conditions. The rigid fork can be swapped out for an 80mm suspension fork if you like, but this would mean you’d lose the extra carrying capacity of the stock fork, and you couldn’t run a 3” tire and 50mm rim.
That last point is something to seriously ponder. ECR is of the 29+ category, a name we made up when we introduced the Krampus. 29+ means more width, more height, more traction, more cushion and more float than standard 29ers. The approach angle of such big tires (close to 31˝) combined with the extra traction and float of high volume, low weight rubber make this bike extremely capable of going lots of places, from roads to trails to little-traveled back country. While the ECR borrows from Ogre, Krampus and even the Long Haul Trucker, its ride quality and capabilities are unique. It’s a pack mule, a pedal-powered escape pod. Wherever you want to explore, this is the bike that can get you there.

As you can see this bike is capable of many different tasks for bike riding and if it interests you stop by the shop and we can discuss options!

Basic Service Clinic - May 7th at 6:30pm. Sign Up Here and hope that we don't get another blizzard to get this one cancelled as well!

To start off the season Single Track Racing is hosting a 6 race series at Sprague Brook starting May 20, 2014. Check out theirFacebook Pagefor more information or Register Here.
