Surly LHT Bottom Bracket Cable Guide
is this a generic part? or are there dark forces at work? can I just pick one of these and roll with it?

Yes, those will do fine. There is nothing exotic or proprietary about Surly frames and those guides will fit.

At the low cost of a BB guide it's "cheaper" to get two or three from the same source and not go through returns or reorders. BTW these are frequently found in the spare parts boxes at a LBS. We have a few types on our shelves and will compare to what's needed if we have the old or the frame in hand before we "sell" one. Andy
