Good evening, this is Crumbworks.
Spring is in full swing and cherry blossoms are starting to bloom here and there. It looks like the cherry blossoms will be in full bloom in Tokyo next week.
Now, ``NOR'EASTER'' has appeared, threatening to blow away those cherry blossoms at any moment.
*A Nor'easter is a tropical storm that strikes the northeastern United States and the Atlantic coast of Canada. ( Wikipedia)

“NOR'EASTER” is a discontinued model, but was sold as a complete bike for a while.
At first glance it looks similar to "Romanceur", but there are some subtle differences in the design. The column is OS and the head tube is set short. The tire clearance is wider, etc.
We installed cake bikes ' original fat tire fork on the NOR'EASTER .
A fat bike like a funny bike, with a front 24x4" and rear 26x3". The tires are the same size front and rear, so they are surprisingly well balanced. The assembly is completely seamless, and it is clear that this fork was made specifically for this frame.
The unique shape of the fork makes it seem like it will overwhelm you with its impact, but
Just as impressive is "CRUST BIKES"
"NOR' EASTER"
It's a very sophisticated, patinated frame, so I hope they'll re-sell it someday.
