    Here are the instructions to fit the seat on my Silvio. I think it is the same seat.

    Questions about upgrading S30 to disc brakes

    thanks for this info. I hadn’t thought about needing a longer chain. Haven’t had any issues with my feet getting wrenched. Hoping you will only get scrapes now.

    Questions about upgrading S30 to disc brakes

    Mine is about 15” measuring the same way. I am a bit under 5’7” with a 41 inch xseam. Of course, now I am wondering if I would like a longer chainstay? Hmmm

    Questions about upgrading S30 to disc brakes

    Thank you! I'm using the chainstay that came with it, whatever size that is. I'm 5'5", with a 40.5" x-seam, if that helps any. They changed it from my model to yours. Mine is flat with no Cruzbike words and seems to be carbon. Yours does seem to be longer.

    Questions about upgrading S30 to disc brakes

    The bike looks sweet. What size chainstay are you using? Your feet seem to be higher than mine. Did you change it out from the original? I don’t have the unsuspended front end so maybe that is the difference? What is your approximate cost for the conversion and do you have a BOM? Sorry for all...

    V20 Assembly

    I use 2 zefal spy mirrors on my Silvio about 3 years now. They work well for me. I like the low profile and think they look good on the bike,

    What did you do to your Cruzbike today?

    Thank you, I only had to re-do the cabling 5, 6 or maybe 7 times. I am a bit picky. I should have given myself a few trial runs with cheap cabling and then once I mastered what I was doing...used the more expensive cabling. The cabling that was on the bike was a bit short so I couldn’t just...

    Bad news received today

    Sorry to hear the news. Hoping your wait is not long and your surgery is successful. Bad news indeed but the surgeon can fix it so a bit of good news.

    What did you do to your Cruzbike today?

    I installed a new fork on my Silvio since the old one would not hold air in the shock any longer. While I was at it...I taught myself how to cable. Replaced both brake cables/housing and the rear derailleur cables and housing. Running the cable housing through the Silvio frame was a bit of a...

    Before and after 19.5" vs 21" chain stay

    What size (19 or 21, other) is a standard chainstay? I am close to the same height as Maria. Thanks

    S1 instruction manual

    After conversations with the rider, she is going to keep the current bars but we are going to take out a couple of the stem spacers. The bar drop is ok. It is the height of the stem/slider. I do appreciate the offer.

    S1 instruction manual

    Super Slim, I did check with Robert and it is possible. Cost runs 325$ plus shipping. I have my original Silvio handlebars since I switched to a Salsa bar also. Robert said you could use the same bars but he must have misspoke. Only paid 800$ for the bike so another 325$ might not be smart. Do...

    S1 instruction manual

    Is it possible to put a new front boom on the S1. Meaning the newer boom assemble with the rounder tubes? The boom on the S1 doesn’t look as sleek as on the newer versions. It also seems more complicated. The current setup is just a tad long for the person riding. So I guess, we need to cut...

    S1 instruction manual

    “Check that the circular rear fork in the spring area has a 10 mm radiused ramp filed into it, so the Titanium spring is not bending around a point(as with the circular fork top), instead of the whole width of the spring...

    Thank you, I do have to move the boom inward about 4”.

    S1 instruction manual

    I’ll try it on my laptop. I’ve been using my iPad, probably an issue with a pdf reader.

    S1 instruction manual

    I have clicked the link for the assembly instructions but only see the first page. I can’t figure out how to access the entire pdf. It is probably something easy. I’ve even asked a friend who was stumped also. Guess we are both goofy. Help?

    Laundry is in the garage so the laundry also houses a car. Lots of laundry rooms in garages in Fl. Thanks for the search tip.
