Surly Midnight Special Carbon

Surly Midnight Special Carbon Road Bike

This Midnight Special is special. It’s the first bike we’ve ever combined with carbon fiber. Yes, there is a years-long paper trail of us touting the benefits of steel and steel alone. But just because steel is real doesn’t mean everything else is fake. Carbon fiber has its own thing going for it, like an incredible strength-to-weight ratio and a knack for reducing road chatter — something you’ll thank us for halfway through your next century on bumpy backroads.

Carbon fiber helps make Midnight Special what it was always meant to be: part hustle and part muscle, a road bike that feels spirited on fresh pavement yet transitions smoothly into the seedy underbelly of road riding, where the asphalt crumbles away and potholes threaten to throw you off-balance.

• Smooth-sailing combination of Surly steel tubing with a carbon fiber fork and rims
• Modern road standards like flat-mount disc brakes, 12mm front and rear thru-axles, and a 44mm head tube
• Clearance for 650b x 50mm or 700c x 42mm tires without fenders (650b x 50mm or 700c x 38mm with fenders)
