Being slightly obsessed with old Stumpjumpers, a modern hardtail modeled after a 90s Stumpy was perfect for Daisy, “I want my bikes to give me that childlike feeling whenever I ride them. However, I’m quite practical in nature, and riding an actual ‘90s hardtail isn’t practical and/or comfortable to be honest.” Read the full interview with more photos and details over at the Surly Blog.
