Somehow I missed all that!

Cool bike!

Nice! Are your bars 31.8 clamp size? Are your levers and shifters sized for MTB bars or road bars?

Bob, Like you, I have ridden other 'bents over the years, starting w a Rans Stratus, Rans V(2), Hase Kettwiesel, Bachetta CA2, Cruzbike Sofrider, and Silvio v1.5. I had no problem w the recline of the Bachetta, which I rode at 26degrees from horizontal, but the thought of the Vendetta at...

That makes me triply glad John Tolhurst came along!

Wow

Yes indeed:

Yep. This is a whole different flip though, and for a different purpose

@hoyden, nice writeup. Glad you're liking the bar like that. And I applaud your 'ambioklutzious-ness'; I seem to be similarly afflicted having spent far too much time crawling around the garage looking for tiny bike bits. Great practice taping and recabling.....that's what I kept telling...

Very nice! Unlike Rojo, I didn't invent anything for my Cruzbike today. I just followed @JOSEPHWEISSERT 's example and put these lower mounts on. Actually put these on last night and they came in really handy for today's 73mi in the sultry summer heat. They don't interfere with the underseat...

Hello Hoyden, The funny alignment of the brifters is why I don't use the stock bars and I apologize for not mentioning that. The stock bars have an extreme flare even for off-road drop bars; that's what makes the levers so far out, and I understand exactly what you're saying about wanting the...

I miss these on the Vendetta

Just be aware that mounting brifters like that will result in them being switched right for left and vv. You'll thus be shifting the rear derailleur w your left hand and front derailleur with your right; this takes about once around the block to get used to. You can of course route your brake...

Just an alternative to standard bar/shifters/levers mounting. Brifters work well on this setup also. No tendinitis issues, multiple hand positions, good ergonomics.

That's what I was wondering. Oh well.

What about using the double sided adhesive they mention, on the inside of the disc to attach it to the wheel, where it won't be seen? Concerned it may come off? Yea that is a cool looking finish on that CF sheet!

Ouch

Very very interesting. Thanks for blazing new trails! What is the story on the 'derailleur adaptation insert' the Rotor site mentions in regard to the QXL rings?
