Bottles etc. Thanks for the pics, Jeff. Nice system you set up for your wife. Glad she's taller than I am and can see over the bottle on the boom. Looks like an ingenious system. I've have the SipAway System and don't think you're missing out on it at all; I've used it for a few weeks...

Fastback Super! Thanks, John. Do you still have the set up? Are able to take any pictures and post them?

Has anyone used the Double Century Fastback Hydration Pack on the Silvio? If so, how did it work or not work? See t-cycle.com

Cushion I have not used one, but here a link to forum post that may be helpful: http://cruzbike.com/ventisit-seat

Has anyone found a good source for feed bags?

Bottles... Sounds like some good ideas are being implemented. It sure would be great to see some pics of your wife's bike hydration system Jeff--especially where the bottle is on the main front tube. Thanks

Silvio pics I am 5'6" and I had to shorten it all the way up with some pressure on the chain stay to get the right fit. (Dale Hough) Thanks for mentioning your experience, Dale; unfortunately, my dilima is the opposite spectrum (5'2", 37" x-seam!!). Enjoy the journey...

Silvio v1.5 Thanks for pics, Rick. I'm still waiting to hear if it's going to adjust small enough for me! At least, I can be happy for ya and enjoy the build vicariously. Enjoy the journey.

Custom So does that mean you've decided not to sell after all?

WhiteSilvio Cable issues I had my cable break the same way as yours did when I used to use Ultegra, but I've used SRAM Red since and for three times longer and never had that happen; I wonder of its a design/engineering issue. I also had other problems with Shimano product that I don't have...

Has anyone had any experience with the Yokozuna product? Will it work on the Silvio as far as fitting in the frame and possibly being too stiff at the bends?

Carbon Fiber Headrest Way to go, Mr.V; nice work. It will be great to see a pic with a rider when it's complete.

Most Enjoyable Ride on Silvio So how do you carry your Silvio on a truck? What type fasteners/racks do you use? Any pics? Have you been riding the Silvio lately because you have been loading and going to flatter roads? Cool 'player' feature on Garmin connect--have you been able to utilize...

Well, I'm 5'2", x-seam 37"!! What category does that fit into?!

"5ft 11inches is not short and either 42.5 inch x seam." Thank you, Dale; good observation.
