We built up a super slick 26x2.8 evasion earlier this year at Keystone Bikes! Carbon rims, dynamo, AXS shifting with cable disc brakes. The thing is awesome.

Really enjoying your bike checks, You make so many fun bikes it would be fun to have one of each! I have been planning a new bike for a while. back and forth between the Evasion and Bombora, The Evasion just speaks to me, it seems like the perfect all around do anything bike, plus at 200 lbs the extra couple lbs of frame weight really is not even issue. Cheers

Thanks for addressing my thoughts. Wanting to run a 2.6 or 2.8. Got a couple of ritcheys but want something that can go anywhere. This or the bombora??? This evasion seems to be the answer 🤔 😊😊 Im 168cm. Im thinking medium? Thanks

I would ride a medium if I was your height.

Love it. Videos such as this a great antidote to the Corporate,Profit Over People,Global Bike Market….Road bikes all looking very,very similar..everything in house and ugly..no soul! Now ‘gravel bikes’ gone same way. Thank goodness for small,hand built,bike related businesses.

with this bike you always seem to end up down some pretty bad roads. But bad roads lead to good places a lot of the time.

Never on disc brake bikes, never on shifting, has happened on a Canti brake bike of mine before.

@@crustbikes 😅😅😅 yeah garret told me when I called on the phone coming from a surly I didn’t want another bike that was too big for me. In the end I think I may have just cut my steer tube too short.
