Bike Check: Crust Bombora

[@noodybynature]

Fork update for those that care: After todays ride up Mt. Lukens with the new fork, I still like the original steel fork because it eats rocks for breakfast - however the nimble/playfulness of the lighter carbon fork allows me to steer and choose my lines quicker…which would I do personally if I could choose? For this bike and what I need it for I’d definitely go with steel over carbon, but that’s me - I can definitely see people preferring the carbon fork too.

This is very good feedback. I’m sure people will appreciate this. Steel is real and carbon in light!

Love the way the replaced tube is left unpainted with what I imagine is a clear coat. It gives the bike character and history.

[@anthonysbike]

Agree! 🙌🏼👀

[@heronguyen8000]

Love the build, the downtube is my favorite part.

[@anthonysbike]

Can I know the mileage of the tires at the time the video was taken? I'm curious about the wear durability of Ultra Dynamico Mars. It may be awkward because it is a Korean translation.

[@anthonysbike]

Mars have good long lasting tread in my experience. No need to worry about short life span. Buy with confidence 👍🏼.

@@anthonysbike thank you😁

How tall are you? Well I guess the owner? I’m looking into size

[@anthonysbike]

He’s about 5’10”. People seem to want to size up on the bombora for some reason. I think maybe to put a bit of a shorter stem on it. Bombora is a built for the rough roads so I think you can likely go either way. Good luck!

[@norway206wa]

Thanks!

Absolutely mystifying drivetrain choice for what the bike is.
