Congrats! I wish I could join in the fun. You should have enough time to become proficient at riding the Cruzbike. I do think you would enjoy the ride better if you train consistently. A smart trainer and a program like Trainer Road, Zwift, or others.

...BC) which is mostly a mountain bike shop. Full disclosure I did buy a couple of bikes from them in my DF days. Bringing in the V20 did get all the techs and sales guys out for a look. West Coast monsoons hve set in and XC skiing will start soon so the V20 is headed for a winter on the trainer.

...phone mount and wired headset with boom mic covered by a windscreen, there's no way to know at this point. So, I'll set up a cheapie trainer 'bent as was suggested, try it on a trainer that has the features discussed here and see if all the social/competitive experiences are of value to me...

Yes. On Trainerroad I don't ever shift. The software constantly adjusts the trainer resistance based on the the training profile and FTP. I occasionally change to a different cog so that they get even wearing instead of just 1 cog.

For Zwift you can have virtual shifting with some smart trainers (Google Zwift Cog), which bike wise essentially is single speed. I have a recumbent setup on a Wahoo Kickt Core like this and it works very well. So basically just a frame, seat, handlebars, single speed drive train (I have to use...

No I'm in Michigan but thanks a lot for offering!

Are you near Seattle area? I have an old Cruzbike Freerider you can have for free. Derailleur doesn't quite work. Wheels are not true. But it will be a good bike for smart trainer.

...it be better to just buy a cheaper old recumbent rather than a S40? If your going to use it outside too fair enough but if it's only for the trainer why not go cheap? I've used my S40 on my direct drive smart trainer and you have the extra faff/awkwardness mounting the front end but it works...

You're definitely on the right track! Yes, you can just buy the S-40 frameset and a smart trainer, but that’s not even necessary—it’s actually cheaper to get a T-50 frameset. I have two setups: a T-50 frame and a Silvio. Neither of them have brakes, derailleurs, shifters, or wheels. Instead, I...

...I don't need either wheels. Some kind of rear frame platform in place of that wheel would be needed as you mentioned. Ok, so those smart trainers simulate resistance of climbs and still have you shifting as if you're outside? So, I would have to get a rear derailleur and shifter then. My...

Hi. For a smart trainer, you basically need a complete bike. The only part you typically remove is the front wheel. You still need the rear wheel, although theoretically, you could support the rear part of the frame on something else. Gears (derailleurs) are essential for a smart trainer if you...

Hi all, I'm wondering what's possible for a trainer setup that's as cheap as possible with an S40 frameset. I know nothing at all about smart trainers. Is it possible to buy an S40 frameset and a smart trainer only? Does the bike still need brakes, wheels, groupset? I'm not up for an...

...to anywhere in the lower 48. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions! If you're nearby, you're welcome to test my V20 on my trainer, or take this bike out for a ride to see just how well it performs. If you are wondering if I am abandoning Cruzbike? Absolutely not, you will...

Use a fan but the rf interference causes trainer drop outs so I have to use a bookcase to try and shield the trainer from the fan‘s rf. Considering the Waho Kiker but given the location of the direct drive trainer blocking the air, what other option have Zwifter come up with?

Use the Kickr Snap as a wheel-on trainer for your front (drive) wheel. The rear can be left alone, maybe supported by a block to keep level.

Are you faster on the S40 than you were on a standard roadbike? I read somewhere about cruzbutt on an S40. Have you experienced discomfort of any sort? One of the reasons I'm interested in these bikes is for comfort and safety (being lower to the ground in case of crash). How hard was it to...

We’ll say it was “like new” because it was purchased by the original owner for his trainer so it had never been outside. I decided to grab it because it is more social of a bike compared to the V20 and I realized how much I enjoyed it. One of those “don’t know whatcha got until it’s gone”...

A few pics from before I put it on the trainer (please ignore my nasty garage):

Of course, but for that distance, I'd have to have the shipping paid for first. I'm expecting a suitable box later this week or if Bike Flights will supply a box, all the better. Kline
