    Cruzbike Fast Freight

    Long rides with load I use this design especially for commute with 10-15 pounds load (lunch, water, tools, raincoat. lock, etc.). Since the career is my backpack then the suspended factor is not to much affected. On the other hand, a rigid case well attached would cancel any suspension I guess...

    Cruzbike Fast Freight

    CFF Commentary Hi B, 6 iterations ? Great !! The CFF rides well on long stretches and at low speed, it turns quick. I had to use a internal hub break in the rear wheel because the VK2 frame had no disk brake attachment nor ajustable V-brake pegs for use with variable diameter wheels (like 24"...

    How about a Tandem!?!

    Compact Tandem with Cruzbike Hi, I just had a deal for a tandem last week. I'm used to Cruzbikes and had the idea to fix a half back bike frame to the V2/k. The front rider is the normal Cruzbike posture but the back rider is something like half recumbent rider (ex: olders LWB bents). The back...

    Aluminium Panniers

    Great idea ! Hey, great and not just for touring ! In commuting situation, even empty, it serves as a bumper to clear off some to much close drivers. For more space in the back I would suggest to change the 26" wheel with a 20" BMX wheel with internal hub break. Thats what is on the new CFF...

    Some thought about my new Quest, after 3 weeks of daily commuting:

    steep hills Hi Billik, I used the first version of the Quest for 2 years and this is my third FWD bent. I thing about others can really help. Try to manage a closer to the front wheel seat position. This will place the gravity center more upfront and will surely help to have a bit more...

    Ventisit Cruzbike Cushion

    Ventisit I now use Ventisit cushion for with all my Cruzbikes (Quest and CFF). I can attest it is a really good innovation. Not only we get a dryer back but in case of rain, you do not sit on a wet sponge ! Cruzbike should at least offer it in option when bying a bike !

    How many chains???

    I agree ! I was a looooong chain bent rider until I discover the genius of the Cruzbike front wheel drive. I started with the Kit, then use the Quest for 2 years. Finally I designed a special "fast freight" commuter looking weird but very efficient for long commuters. The "CFF". Cruzbike Fast...

    Trek Y3: will it work?

    CFF Unfortunately, this site cannot accept images size more than 1 MB. The CFF is mainly a Cruzbike frame (V2/K) with the Cruzbike conversion kit + a 700 cyclocross fork with a BMX rear wheel for more space for lugging things on it.
