The story: I bought it off this forum in 2018 and it had 2 miles on it. I am sure it still has less than 50. It has just been sitting here, I’ve got other bikes, golf clubs, a couple of boats, a bunch of guitars, an RV, etc. I'm thinking put it up for sale and let someone serious about cycling have it.

Update October 2025: The bike is still sitting here (in Orlando) so I am dropping the price significantly to $1450 plus shipping.

Hi Matt,
You are slightly mistaken -this is only a Silvio. An S30 will have "S30" on the frame just above the "Cruzbike Z". The rear stay and front chainstay also have "Cruzbike" labels on them.

You have a "white Silvio" - which was produced just before the S30, and it still have the CF covered front chainstay and a "Silvio" label on the main frame. I am not sure, but this was also a very limited build and run, and your version looks to be the nicest I have ever seen.

Great observations, Larry! It seems like this was an early prototype of the S30 that was still in the design phase. To clarify, the seat-stays you mentioned are indeed different; they're white instead of the usual black. Also, the front stays feature a horizontal black carbon fiber bar, differing from the vertical design with the "Cruzbike" logo seen on the finalized model. Although Robert referred to it as the S30 in the video, the name might have been applied a bit prematurely since the design was still evolving. Thanks for pointing these details out!

Jonathan and or Robert can confirm this, but I think the White Silvio was used as a placeholder on the web-site for the S30 - and it was never updated - perhaps the S30 was not ready in time?

What is the seat angle on this bike?

What is the seat angle on this bike?

If I'm not mistaken, it should be 27 degrees like the black versions. I don't think the angle changed until they actually came out with the S30. I think the S30 was 33 degrees (?).

What is the seat angle on this bike?

I put a digital meter on a straight edge and I get about 29.2. There is curve to the seat and I can get 27.2 and other numbers depending on where I sample it.

If I lived anywhere near you I would have snapped it up in an instant - it's gorgeous! (getting it posted overseas would be too much ask...)

This bike also has a front shock. It is deflated in the picture. These are great bikes. I own one. The S30 does not have the front shock.

Price reduced, $2650.

I'll be showing the bike at the Horrible Hundred, this Sunday November 17th in Clermont Florida.

Send me a PM if you are interested in seeing/riding it.

Thanks,
Matt

PS. If Florida is a pancake, I can show you where the blueberries are.

Is this bike still available? I'm going to be in south Florida in mid-February...could possibly come check it out...

I still have it, and your timing could be good. Send me a PM if you'd like to share contact information.

Someone asked, so I will put the answer here. I would estimate the bike has less than 50 miles on it. I did a series of little get-to-know-cruzbike rides in the neighborhood across the street, slow figure 8 turns, accelerations, and breaking. Last year I had 100 days in my self-build RV and this year is likely to be more. I've been doing some zone 2 indoor training in Zwift between travels, but that is about it for now.

Is this bike still for sale? I am interested in buying it. I live near in Tampa.

Assuming shipping goes through, this bike is now sold! To me

I'm excited for you and will make note on the ad. These recumbents have a lot to offer. I especially enjoy messing with the triangle bikes on windy days!
