CRUST DERECHO FRAME

The Crust Derecho is Anton Krupicka's signature bike, designed to blend the best features from the Bombora, Evasion, and Evasion Lite into one powerful and versatile frame. Built for riders who want to climb with ease and bomb down mountain double tracks, the Derecho is a true all-rounder. Featuring a Reynolds 853 tubeset with an oversized downtube for added strength and stiffness, this bike is a joy to ride, especially when you're out of the saddle. If you're looking for a frame that can handle both uphill climbs and rugged descents, this is the one.
