    S30 Boom Adjustment

    http://cruzbike.com/fit.html I looked at the page above and understand where to apply 1, 2, and 4. Where should I use measurement 3 (arm extension) for initial bike adjustment? I assume it is for handlebar reach but I am not sure.

    QX100 or Sofrider 2

    I have both the Q559 and a sofrider. I would go with the Q. Great versatile bike.

    What is the hollow tube for in the picture? Is there any reason you should not cover the hole? I had the bike on my rack last week and got caught in the rain. The tube filled up with water.

    Silvio ready to roll

    I've checked my measurements and used the crank calculator. Is the Silvio considered a high or medium BB bike? I'm guessing medium. The calculator says I should be using 150's for high and 155 for medium. There are a couple of choices in each category. Also, based on info from Ratz which gave...

    Silvio ready to roll

    Thanks for all the information. I need to digest it all and pick something that will work on the S30. I believe shorter cranks are my next step either 150 or 155. I don't think I can handle the swap so I'll check with my bike shop also. I'm leaning toward 150s.

    Silvio ready to roll

    My xseam is 39" and I am 67" tall. The distance form the back of my seat to the extended pedal is at 39 so the boom length seems ok. The boom length isn't short but it won't go shorter inside the boom. I could move the handlebars closer. I don't think the boom length is the culprit because I...

    Silvio ready to roll

    I have the new screw installed and the bike shop added anti seize stuff. The guy said it was a bear to get out. This was the 2nd Silvio in their shop for the same reason. The guy said a gal named Hope has the same bike. Went for a short ride today but am having some knee pain that I did not...

    Is there any reason why a quick release clamp should not be used?

    Silvio ready to roll

    I have the Silvio back to stock with the original handlebar (Thanks, Ratz) etc. I purchased the bike from a guy in Canada on EBay. The slider clamp screw closest to the handlebar is stripped. Any suggestions on where to find a replacement or what type of screw will work? My bike shop did not...

    Rear derailleur special hanger blot and nut question

    Thanks but ?? thank you for the pic but I think this is a different derailleur. The Q has a SRAM dual drive w/ click box. The clickbox fits onto the axle end. I have no nut or bolt left in any bag. I wish it looked like that. I think the click box is going to be a pain. ?

    Rear derailleur special hanger blot and nut question

    5mm hex hanger bolt I have studied and now believe I am missing the hanger bolt. I finally have the chain untangled and everything oriented. The hanger fits into the frame groove. I can't figure out how to attach the derailleur to the frame. I think you use the bolt and then install the tire. I...

    Rear derailleur special hanger blot and nut question

    My Q arrived but I have found the directions a bit lacking, actually my skill and knowledge severely lacking. I am hung up on how to attach the derailleur. The instructions reference a special hanger nut and bolt. Could someone post a pic of what this looks like? My plan is to get the q...

    Quest on order

    After riding a "new to me" Sofrider for a few years, I finally decided to order a new Quest. I have several joint and spine issues that make a DF bike just not fun. A Cruzbike is fun. Hoping it gets here quickly.
