This week’s Readers’ Rides comes from Dan, who pedals this bike all over the Northeast. It’s a Crust Bike Nor’Easter and Dan calls it his Party Bike. Follow along with Dan on Instagram and check out more photos and a parts breakdown below…
Figured I’d toss my hat in the ring for the Readers’ Rides, hope you find the bike interesting! It’s my party/touring/camping/cruising bike that really shines on gravel but also knows how to have fun on city streets.
