My problem is....I don’t know what I want and I am Internet trained.

Very nice riding gear. I have one CB jersey which is already pictured. Does CB have a name for the orange or gold color? Or are there official corporate colors?

thank you for the offer. I just did my second ride with the 165s and my knees aren’t that sore. I haven’t gone longer rides since I and still adjusting but it might be ok. How much would you want for the 155s? The Ultegra has 52-36 rings. Is the Sram a 50-34? The S30 is 11speed and the Sram...

If you want to investigate crank length; give this calculator a try. Many would say for optimal performance shorter cranks are the way to go on a recumbent. http://www.wisil.recumbents.com/wisil/misc/crank_angle.asp

I found this information on the Bikesmith site regarding ultegra. https://bikesmithdesign.com/Short_Cranks/hollow.html

oh my, I certainly do not have all those tools. I find for myself, that things are easy if I know what I am doing. If I were in Ky, I would take it over to http://www.capitolbicycles.com/ but alas I am not. I am more concerned with time over cost. Q rings have been mentioned so maybe I should...

I do not really need a triple here in flat Fl. I do have Sram apex doubles shortened by Bikesmith on the 2.1 and a friends 1.0. I haven’t ridden Q rings. Are they easier on the knees?

Fantastic. What a wonderful thing for you to do for for your friend.

Gary, what size chain stay do you have now? I think they come in three sizes. I just picked up a S30 and the chainstay is a few inches longer than my 2.1. The other factor is your crank size. Shorter cranks will get your feet higher also.

My 2.1 will live in Ky to ride when I am there. The S30 lives in Fl for riding when I am in Fl. No bike transporting over long distances. I will cruise to EBay to look for ultegra cranks. Where would I take the cranks to get them tapped? A bike shop?

My new to me S30. I am still working on the fit. It came with Shimano Ultegra components. The crank length is 165mm. I use Sram 150s cut down by Bikesmith on my Silvio 2.1. Anyone have a suggestion about changing the Ultegra to 150s? I don’t think my knees are going to like the 165s.

Glad I could help you out with spending some dollars. Have a great ride in your Cruzbike Jersey. Of course, unless you post a picture in the Jersey...we can’t be sure you bought it.

I found this Cruzbike Jersey on EBay. Size L. I am not the seller. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Primal-Cruzbike-Blue-Yellow-Cycling-Road-Bike-Jersey-Front-Pockets-Mens-Large-/353429685298?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286

Very interesting. I did not think the V front end was compatible with the Silvio. It gives you the rear suspension without the front suspension similar to the rare S30. Welcome to the forum.

Yes, the guy said it was originally black. He just did not like it that color.

Super. Enjoy your new ride.

I was hoping all your efforts word work out. I have enjoyed watching your work. The chainring is really nice but it sure doesn’t seem compatible with your chain. I am sure you will figure out something.

Here is a pic from a previous forum post. I would give credit but I don’t recall who previously posted.

Welcome and enjoy your new life of comfort.
