    a little ventisit back surgery

    I have a Ventisit Comfort pad but I thought it might be just as comfortable if it were not so thick. Following Kenneth's example I cut a single zip tie and was easily able to remove the inner layer as there were no points of attachment. I'll see how this works out on my next ride. If it is...

    Comfortable Vendetta brevet setup

    Recently I installed a 46cm Salsa Woodchipper handlebar. The flare is such that there is no interference with shifting. The each end of the bar was shortened 2cm to improve leg clearance while turning at low speed. Because of the design of this bar I find the drops to be the most comfortable...

    V20 with a Thor seat? What’s the story?

    "there is an annoying hollow rattling sound over bumps that I'd like to eliminate". Also check that portion of the rear brake cable that passes through the frame for the rattle.

    My first S40 Audax this weekend

    Kenneth, I'm not sure how the forum works either. What I did yesterday was to click on your avatar of a question mark and your name to the left of your post. I then typed a reply under the title Profile Posts. When I click on your avatar now I can see the post. Let me know if it shows up for...

    attachThumb6725 attachThumb6726 My avatar is not current. You are looking at an inverted Soma Bullhorn with SRAM brifters. I liked the bars but never was comfortable with the braking from the top of the brifter. I tried 46cm Salsa Cowbell bars for awhile but changed to Salsa...

    My first S40 Audax this weekend

    I'll guess that cook top was designed for an island rather than against a wall.

    Zip tie fork/chainstay; maiden voyage

    I have not seen it mentioned before but I believe that the Ventisit pad actually breaks in over time. I have had the comfort model on my red V20 since Nov. 2014 and it feels softer now than when it was new.

    Cell Phone Storage

    To carry my iPhone 6 I use a Topeak Aero Wedge Micro Strap-On Seat Mounted Bag. I believe these come in several sizes so you may need to go to a bike shop to make sure your phone fits. This bag is attached to the rails of a DF bike with the straps and that are seen on top of the bag. There is...
