I use the salsa woodchipper bar with both my bikes.

if I am having trouble, I turn mine upside down and use gravity to help put the wheel back in place. It works for me.

I have rival 2x10 on my 2.1 but ultegra on my S30. I like the ultegra better. You don’t have to twist your wrist as much to shift. My brakes are mechanical rival and ultegra. I still use mechanical. Easier for me to fix than disk brakes. Enjoy your build.

I have the same bike. I also have an S30. Great bikes. What components are you installing?

Silvio 2.1

Oh no, that isn’t good. I will have to check my Silvio. I hope there is a fix.

I use the thicker pad with some lower back padding in the middle. The thicker is doubled so it is easy to take apart and add cushion for back support where needed. You just zip tie it back together.

I have used several hitch mount racks. A Thule fits a V20 and a Reese fits a V20 along with the other models. The Thule requires you to lean the bike and then place the arm on the frame. I use the Thule when I travel because it has a built in arm lock and cable lock. Easier to put on your hitch...

I was in Palatka, Fl and saw a S40 on a bike rack. I wanted to follow them but did not want to stalk the person. It certainly made me smile and I wondered where they were going to ride or back home? Anyway, it was great seeing another Cruzbike.

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.

I am in Fl over on the West coast. I am the lucky owner of several Cruzbikes. There is, at least, one other Cruzbike owner in the area. If you ever come to SWFL, I have a few models you can try.

I use the suspension adjustable neck rest on my S30. I do modify the cushion and trim down the plastic piece a bit smaller. I add a bit more cushion to make the neck rest squishy. I have neck troubles and this helps quite a bit.

So, what components did you use for your S30? I am looking to upgrade my S30 . It is still using the original Cruzbike Sram Rival 10 sp components and wheels. Good luck chasing KOMs.
