    Goggles

    Pivot/washers

    I have a 2015 Red Vendetta that I purchased from Cruzbike as a frame set. I assembled the bike without washers on either side of the pivot clamp. I downloaded the assembly instructions on January 4, 2015. The use of washers was not mentioned.

    New Adjustable Carbon Fiber Seat and Headrest for the Cruzbike V and S series

    "It appears as though it should fit the same." You are correct! When I had installed the Moose Pack I had removed Velcro attached to the frame where the straps are positioned. The Velcro and the straps are thus a single level which the seat rests upon. Thanks
