It is more about the headset, I guess, that smooths the handling of the S40. I also like the idea of being able to use wider tires. I am pretty sure Robert said that the cane creek headset isn’t backwards compatible. “Cane Creek ViscoSet® Headset (This premium headset leverages viscous damping...

I now have a the opportunity to ride and see the beauty of a 2021 S40. A friend picked up a S40 for a ridiculous price of 2k. Brand new except for 35 miles on the bike. Perfect condition. So, I am lucky to be able to ride a Silvio 1.0, a 2.1, a S30, a S40 and a V20. I take care of my friends...

I am fine without a shoulder return. I just feel like the shoulder area should be wider. Of course, where the shoulder is would differ for each person. I guess I really mean the top of the seat being wider which is where my shoulders hit. It would also help in mounting some bags.

I’d like more information on the seat. I ride the original seat on my S30. I think I would like something with a wider shoulder area. I love my S30 and my Silvio 2.1. I do think the seat could be improved a bit, at least for me. I haven’t gone the Thor route since the original seat is good but...

Good job solving your own issue and the wrenching. Good luck with your first ride. Let us know how it goes!

So sorry. A stye is painful. Maybe something like ski goggles might work?

It looks like you have the old clamp style. These used metal pieces and some foam to keep the headrest bars in place. My guess is that the metal piece has jammed on you. I would probably take both screws all the way out. Look inside the frame for the metal piece. You can probably use a...

I agree. IMO, The Cruzbike wedge would work better if is were thinner and not as hard. But I guess you can always cut it but that would take a bit of skill.

Nice looking bike. Beautiful. I love a white bike.

Thanks for the review. I hope it continues to work for you. I have ultegra on my S30 and have great performance, so far. The bike came with ultegra installed. I was running Sram on my Silvio 2.1 but switched to 105s. I haven’t given it much use since the bike lives in a different state. It is my...

Here is a link to the Senior Games. https://nsga.com/schedule/ May 10-23rd 2022 Fort Lauderdale. The links are in Larry’s first post.

Wow, I sure hate to hear the 105 issues. This summer I put 105s on my Silvio 2.1. It doesn’t have many miles on it since it is my Ky bike. I haven’t had any issues with it over about 500 miles. I am running Ultegra components on my S30 with no issues. I am a light rider and not a hard or fast...

Frito Bandito, post: “Not sure which I like better, but I find myself wishing for the other kind of weather regardless of which I am riding in :D“ I wear shorts and a cycling shirt. Sometimes I need a jacket. I definitely like warmer weather better. No wishes for different weather, I am quite...

Today’s temp is a high of 84F. When it gets in the 60s, I am chilly. I actually like riding when it is in the 90s. I have ridden when it is 100 before. I drink plenty of water. As long as you are moving; the breeze you generate keeps you cooler.

Unless you are in Fl. In Fl, winter is the best riding weather. Tear down, and revamping your bike, is a great task for the extreme, hot, summer months

Merry Christmas to the Tribe!

Great job. The ingenuity of the tribe is fantastic. Does the wind catch the fabric and flap it around? My hands do not get cold in sunny Fl. I wonder if you could use a milk jug and glue or Velcro the fabric so it has structure? But I guess you really don’t need it so you can move your hands in...

The Q559 I had used a 559 wheel size. I no longer have this bike but have a S2.0 and an S30. Welcome to the tribe. Enjoy your ride.
