  • Tank Girls: We decided to test ride the adventure capabilities of the new 400cc Crosby Adventure - through Lesotho (the Kingdom in the Sky), all the way down a muddy, rain soaked Sani Pass, & ending in Durban (home of the Bunny-Chow). Boy - can these two Tank Girls put a bike through it's paces!?! But a big congratulations to the Crosby (aptly named Brill) - he survived! Video Produced by Jolandi Mentz (21-23 March 2019)

    Great video! Thank you for sharing, I have one but I wanted to know how good or bad it is?.. How many Kms did you made with it?

      We only used it for one trip of 2000km. It was still quite new. We unfortunately got bad fuel in Lesotho and had problems with the bike all the way down to Durban and back home. On a good note - it made it all the way on it's own steam huffing and puffing. It also survived down a very muddy and wet Sani Pass without brakes (you can't switch off the ABS). How do you find yours?

    Awesome video!!! Looking for a small Adventure Bike and just came across the bike today. Looking at doing something similar across Lesotho, and this video is great!!! Did you encounter any mechanical issues on your ride?

      Not with the bike itself, but we got bad fuel in Lesotho which clogged up the filters, etc. Had a battle to get the bike back up in Jo'burg, but... I can't imagine any other bike still completing the trip and making it all the way back with filthy petrol flowing through its tubes. One up for Crosby!

      I know this was 2 years ago but I see lots of these bikes for sale but can't find any on the brand or where it comes from or anything, do you still have it and any info on the brand ?

    Yours still running Skinny? Looks like something I might enjoy abusing for a shortwhile.

      The Crosby? We only had it for that one weekend and not sure if it survived the whole bad-fuel thing? Haven't seen any around. Why? Are you looking for a small adventure bike?

      It was a trip of survival. But what would an adventure be without that ;-)

    Crosby? Never heard of them.

      I'm not sure about the origin of the bike. Best would be to contact Pat from V Custom Cycles for more info (pat@vcustomcycles.co.za). But the bike survived - which in itself is a golden star to Crosby.

      Not sure if Pat still brings them in. You'll have to contact V-Custom Cycles in Centurion.
