In love with the Salsa Casseroll

[Eden]

OMG Did the driver even stop?

Oh indeed.... he had to with my bike trapped under his car.... pulled it right out of my hands. Thank goodness I wasn't pushing a stroller or walking a dog!

I love my Casseroll. You won't be sorry.

..... or holding on real tight. Insured? No of course not.

But all in all Seattle drivers seem quite nice at least compared to where I'm from.

You can probably fit my Cross Check - if you want to do a test ride when you're in my area

Back Alley in Chapel Hill has some Surly Bikes in stock too - if you happen to need a different size.

Thanks! I think I need a 50cm based on the size of my Luna. I'll be there next week for a few days for work...perhaps I can come test it out if it's not too inconvenient with your house situation and all. I hadn't heard of Back Alley. I'll look into them. Thanks for the tips!

It should be fine We had a little party at 7:45 this morning (home inspector, structural engineer, realtor, us), but *should* be calmer the rest of the week. I would call or email Back Alley first. He has some in stock - but I have no idea what sizes (he mostly does repairs).

I think mine is a 50cm. Surly measures a bit odd - but as best I can tell that's what it is (I bought it 2nd hand).

I just purchased a Salsa Casseroll single 2010 and the color is ginger beer. I'm putting my Brooks Finnesse saddle on it and Drillium pedals. It will have brown wrap tomorrow and a White Industries freewheel soon. I've had it only 3 days and have ridden mostly in town. Soon school will be out and longer rides begin. I really like how they clear coat over the decals and other nice finishes. So far really nice ride. Her name is Ginger.

Still waiting for WI freewheel and JB tires. Later I will add the bamboo fenders.

So I went to buy my bike today, and they're in the process of building one up. They said it takes about a day to build, and they're closed tomorrow. I work Tue-Fri, so no bike for me til Saturday. Very anxious and impatient!!

How exciting!! Post pictures as soon as you can.

[leah]

I am drooling over the Salsa Casseroll. It will be a perfect everyday adjunct to my racy bike, for everyday errands and touring! I like how you can run 700c x 38mm road tires for long trail rides

Turns out a bike shop within an hour of me has one in my size. I am going to have to test ride it soon!! I can barely wait.

The thread and I found each other today. I'm going to ride a Salsa Casseroll tomorrow. Hope I like it as much as you all seem to.
