    Vosadrian's V20 Journey - Australia

    I have that one, too. Also got it on sale. Obnoxious orange and garish green. At least I don't have to look at it. :p

    Tri shorts vs. “Regular” vs. Bib vs. Recumbent specific

    For the ladies--I've been pleased with the Terry Metro Lite short. The padded liner is detachable. Longer inseam, hits a couple of inches above the knee. Not a compression short, but not a baggy MTB short either (they call it a "city" short). The leg openings don't flap in the breeze on fast...

    Amputee Cruzbike Riders?

    Wasn't me, but I've seen those here on the forums. I think I've even seen plastic mini toe clips mounted on the back of the pedal to keep the heel from sliding off. @vmi1056 I was so nervous about clipping in on my first Cruzbike, that I bought (inexpensive) pinned mountain-bike platform pedals...

    Upgraded QX100 rear shock.

    I may have an A5-RE in my parts box, 125mm for the Quest and QX100. It's also an air shock. but has only one inlet. I'll check and let you know. I have an A5-RR1 on my Q. Honestly can't tell much difference. Both are much better than the stock shock. I have to tell on myself, though. The A5-RE...

    Thule T2 hitch rack modifications for V20

    I grew up in north Mississippi, and now live in the central part of the state. I go down to Hattiesburg several times a year to ride the Longleaf Trace, and take my daughter and son-in-law to lunch. Have you ever ridden the Bikes, Blues, and Bayous event in Greenwood? Now that's flat...

    Thule T2 hitch rack modifications for V20

    I didn't expect that trailhead to be right there in downtown, like to not found it. I've ridden from there to the north city limits of Pontotoc, and from Houston up to the Pontotoc County line. The Houston trailhead was in a sketchy neighborhood, just a pavilion with a couple of picnic tables...

    My S40 recumbent butt solution

    The seat pan on the S30 was one of the reasons I went to a Thor seat. It didn't feel long enough for me, and it couldn't be extended. I never slid into the frame, but there was always the feeling that I could have. The other reason was that I wanted my head more upright, so I was less...

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    Yep, coconut flour will do that. It absorbs fluid like crazy. I used to make a keto bread called Soul Bread (not like "soul food", LOL). It uses unflavored zero-carb protein powder, whole eggs, cream cheese, and leavening. Pretty decent taste, keeps well in the fridge, slices and toasts well...

    Looks like I'm gonna be an S40 owner Friday!

    I have one of those old Q-series with the DualDrive hub. I love it. I don't do high mileage, and I stay in the middle (1:1) gear most of the time. When I need to change ranges, it's effortless. I can even shift both levers at once to get in the right gear quickly, no worries about throwing the...

    Fitting Question - S30

    You probably won't find anything shorter than 165 mm in SRAM Red. My cranks are SRAM Apex, cut down by Mark Stonich of Bikesmith Design. I believe Cobb, among others, makes higher-end cranks in shorter sizes. Yes, I've used a stem riser since I swapped the stock seat for a Thor seat. Here's...
