Saw this on family bike shop. Looking to eventually build out something like this – seems to me this is a straggler according to the IG post.
But looking at the straggler it seems too tall with no rake. Is it just because of the fork?

That’s most definitely a Straggler: [https://bikepacking.com/news/readers-rig-kobkits-surly-straggler/](https://bikepacking.com/news/readers-rig-kobkits-surly-straggler/)
Specifically, it’s the new, updated Straggler that shares many features with the Midnight Special: [https://surlybikes.com/products/straggler-frameset-shaggy-carpet](https://surlybikes.com/products/straggler-frameset-shaggy-carpet)
The Rockshox Judy fork is quite a bit longer than the standard Straggler rigid fork, so it’s raising the front end by almost two inches.
Straggler. You can see the snail on the seat tube
