Grasshopper


So you don't really need a cross bike but the thought of spending your time aboard a short and snappy road bike doesn't float your boat? The Grasshopper might be the cure. We started with our Royale model and added room to clear 32c tires and long reach brakes, and lengthened the wheelbase a little to smooth things out. What we ended up with is 50% road, 50% cross, and 100% rad. Sort of like a bar that plays Country and Western music. A long-ish road bike or short-ish cross bike? Slice it up either way but what you get is a bike that give you luxurious all day comfort. Nothing crazy here, just a bike that seems to fit the needs of an ever growing number of folks.
