    I'm completely bummed out... My LHT had to be ordered (of course ) and it was supposed to come in today. It didn't. Stupid storm...

    I am assuming you got one of the two smallest sizes - if so then make certain that Surly sent the right bars and brake levers with it. They are supposed to ship smaller road bars and brake levers for smaller hands with those sizes but they seem to forget this from time to time. It happened with mine and several other people I know of.

    I am looking forward to hearing what you think of your lovely new LHT when you get the chance to ride it. Have you used bar-end shifters before?

    Actually, I ended up with the 50 cm. I'm not a WSD/shorter top tube kinda girl, but I will definitely check on the bars and brake levers. Thanks for the heads up!
