Bontrager Race X Lite Thanks Doug and John! I have a Bontrager Race X Lite Compact Bottom Bracket and Crank [actually Truvativ Giga X Pipe], with external bearing races. If I am reading my spec sheet correctly the race widthe is 44.5mm for a frame width of 68mm--no spacers. If needed, I...

Then, I may be a first. Woodie Anderson, formerly of The Bicycle Shop in Fay., NC, will likely do my build-up. He knows my groupset. Thanks Jim for letting me know there are no restrictions. We'll see how it goes... Jim Artis

Thanks John! The crank is Bontrager Race X Lite Compact [54/30 10-speed chain rings]. I'm hoping I can use the components I have rather than trying to sell them. I get more value by keeping them. I'm looking forward to the next-gen V. --jim

Anyone??? Anyone???

Cable Routing Are your cables routed inside the bars? Thanks! Jim

Are you selling them? If so, I'm interested...

For John Tolhurst: Can I use Campy Record Components with the Vendetta? I'm thinking a frameset and then componets & wheels from my Trek Project One road bike. I like the Bull Horn Bars as well as the drop-V-bars from Mr.V. [Sir, if you read this I want to contact you]...

Hi Marc, Thanks for your comments. I do not think I can get those pictures for you now. Dr. Parker may. We live about 30 miles apart. I'm not expecting to see the bike again until Maria's record attempt. OTOH, I'd love to have it for a weekend. [shhh] As to comfort, I think I rode my RANS...

Bruce, Thanks for my part. --jim

Thanks Doug! I appreciate your comments. It is my pleasure to have met and conversed with John today. It was exciting to be there as the new Vendetta was put through its paces by Maria. I trust I will see you in the fall as maria rides for another record. If things go well, maybe I can add...

Well, I have a video up. I had to use YouTube because of a file transfer problem between iPhone & my PC for .MOV files. Once resolved the movie will be of much higher quality. I'll have a second video later--probably tomorrow, unless I resolve the file transfer problem soon. Thanks! Jim...

From BROL's Neil Cooper: I saw how FAST Maria rode it today. It is quite a machine! I have posted 11 additional photographs--that should make 19 total. Good that you know first-hand how it looks and how it rides. Have you ridden it? I got to sit on it. I did not venture to ride it...

Today, I got to see and photograph John Tolhurst's latest Cruzbike creation, the Vendetta. Not only to see it, but to see it ridden by the record setting, Maria Parker. How exciting is that!!! Maria rode a lap of the course she rode in White Oak, North Carolina. I was there for that ride and...
