Expert
Cruiser
100%
hand crafted in the United States! We've added a true Expert Cruiser size frame as our
previous model was more of an Expert XL Cruiser
size. This new frame is designed to fit riders
4’7” to
5’1”. This frame
keeps the 1” head tube to keep it light weight up
front where the Expert XL cruiser goes to the
1-1/8" head tube.
The
Expert Cruiser has a slightly easier head angle than
most frames at 72.5 degrees. The reason behind this is that younger riders on skinny tires
feel squirrelly with steep head angles.
This makes them slow down until the bike
feels more comfortable and the main idea here is to
make them feel more comfortable so they can go
faster! Our
72.5-degree head angle gives the bike quick enough
turning but makes the bike feel more secure
(especially in the turns) allowing them to go
faster.
Like
our 20" frames,
our Cruiser frames feature short back-ends that make
the bike react quicker out of the gate and the
turns. Shorter
back ends also tend to manual jumps better.
Crupi frames come standard with custom cable
hangars and machined head tubes, which are faced for
you so your headset will press in smoothly and
evenly.
