I really like the stance and love the TT on the Sklar.
The faran and black crust are very similar however I think the clean tube profiles and the flatter top tube on the crust make it more aesthetically pleasing.

That particular faran is a 56 Tall, so longer HT and therefore sloping TT geo vs the standard 56 which is nearer a horizontal TT

The heart wants what the heart wants, and Fairlight doesn’t exude romance, but in regular size the top tube is actually more towards horizontal than the crust, and I quite like the ovalised/ flattened cross section of it, it looks ‘lighter’ to me. No arguments about the downtube. I just think the fairlight is a better bike than the crust but I’ll stop going on about it now

I’m not sure what makes the crust so much nicer than the Faran
The sklar at least has some fancy bits to it
