A.
anwered by: jackivey In my experience, the Mulefut and the Surly Other Brother are very close in both weight and quality. Either choice would make a very solid build. The surly fat rims give you the option to offset the rim from the hub to fit on their own Pugsley frames. That is probably the biggest difference.
