I guess this is the place where I say that every time I remember Crust exists, I go look at their framesets and I’m like wow! These frames look cool and the colors look sick. And then I start reading the descriptions and I feel like I’m going to have a migraine because it seems like every single one has some quirk that requires you to buy some weird $300 to $500 oddball part from their site. Except the Dakar, which looks pretty normal other than 26”, $7000 dollars please!
I guess I should clarify that I understand that that’s just their schtick/niche but as I get older I just want building a bike to be easy. I already own 2 135mm offset fatbike wheelsets and framesets, everything needs to be normal from here on out

rough math shows that i could build this same shitbox for $1k less than what theyre asking. i do wonder what crustmatt thinks of his customers sometimes.

Very weird when the sales person/owner can’t afford their own stuff.
Where would we be without that whole thing

Speaking of fucking jackass parking spots, someone got confused about what a crosswalk is for. If I hadn’t been with my family, I’d 100% have put a pebble in the valve cap. This car was parked like that for hours.

This fucken shithead. Not just riding an illegal ebike (no pedals!) but most egregiously taking up multiple spots at the only bike parking at the metro station/mall.

No chain!
There’s a no-chain diy ebike that passes me occasionally but it still has the pedals and cranks on which the guy turns slowly to trigger the torque sensor or whatever.

we have opened an investigation on ourselves.
we have found ourselves to do no wrong-doing.
plus, our tattoo sleeves make us look pretty badass, if you ask me.
i hit my wife.
