Crust Bikes Evasion Lite

The Evasion Lite is a stripped-back, weight-conscious version of the original. It removes excess rack mounts and steel plates to prioritize agility and speed, while swapping the steel fork for a lighter carbon version.

The frame is highly versatile and accommodates 26-inch, 27.5-inch, and 700c wheelsets. This flexibility allows you to tune the bike's handling and tire volume based on the specific terrain you plan to ride.

Yes, the included carbon fork is engineered to handle the demands of mixed-terrain and gravel riding. It significantly reduces front-end weight to improve handling without compromising the structural integrity needed for off-road use.

The ED (Electrophoretic Deposition) coating is applied to the frame to provide superior corrosion resistance, meaning it requires no special maintenance beyond standard cleaning. It is a highly durable finish designed to protect the chromoly steel from rust in wet or humid conditions.

The Evasion Lite uses a standard 73mm English (BSA) threaded bottom bracket, which is reliable and easy to service. For braking, it is designed for flat-mount calipers, accommodating up to 160mm rotors on both the front and rear.

Yes, the frame uses a 27.2mm seat post diameter, which is compatible with many dropper posts on the market. While the frame features internal dynamo and brake cable routing, you should check your specific dropper post's routing requirements to ensure a clean setup.
