Now unofficially known as the ScapeBot, the Crust Scapegoat is back with updated geometry, fresh robot graphics, and clearance for 29 x 3.0″ tires. Check it out here…
The Scapegoat has been in Crust’s lineup for some time now, and while it’s been tweaked over the years, it has always existed is a versatile and dependable steel touring mountain bike. The most recent update was back in 2019, when Crust teased the second-generation Scapegoat—the ScapeBot—and we’re excited to see finally become available.
The latest Scapegoat is called the ScapeBot, and it features fresh robo-inspired graphics from artist Nick Kuszyk, as well as a completely overhauled geometry. As far as angles go, there have been lots of changes. These include a steeper head tube angle for easier front-loaded steering, slightly shorter stack and reach, a longer seat tube for a larger main triangle, slightly longer rear end to accommodate 29 x 3.0″ tires, and a higher bottom bracket. The Scapegoat is still based around a Taiwan-made heat treated Chromoly steel frame, loads of rack and bottle bosses, dropper post routing, and it can fit 27.5 x 3.8″ or 26 x 4.0″ tires.
