u/Key-Bug8962

Hi all,
Looking at getting a secondhand surly straggler or a new surly preamble.
It will be used mainly as a commuter but also with some small bikepacking trips and general countryside/park rides.
What would everyones advice be?
Straggler im looking at is £1.3k with custom good components worth more. Preamble is £800 with stock parts.

Any advice or other recommendations welcome please!
Thanks
