The BentUp Cycles Aero Bag is designed to slip over the back of a hard shell seat. On the Vendetta 20, the bag is not compatible with the seat and headrest as is. Here is one more way of adapting the headrest bar to carry the bag. Headrest Cage Mount Kit from CruzBike. Headrest Mount...

Larry, create a check list for your trailer and your cargo. Print it out in a large font and put it in a folder in your vehicle. Refer to it every single time you hitch up the trailer. Been there! ;)

Flat tires. By June of last year I finally had enough and began researching road tubeless tires. I decided to go with Bontrager and ordered wheels and tires through my LBS. On July 1, 2014 I put my new Bontrager RXL wheels and Bontrager 25c tires on my Silvio 1.0 replacing Mavic Ksyrium wheels...

Tubeless tires for my bike in the face of the generous crop of goat head thorns every year here 0n the western tip of Texas. Those Flo wheels look like a really good choice.

Thank you for explaining the why not and the possible consequences. Bruce

Has anyone converted the Cruzbike A67 wheel to be used with tubeless tires?

My head circumference is 60cm and my medium Air Attack fits perfectly with plenty of adjustment. According to the label in the helmet the medium is indicated to fit a 66 - 69cm head. Can anyone else chime in?

That is an elegant solution for parking a MMB bike. In other threads, the use of an elastic or Velcro band around the front brake lever is mentioned as very helpful in stabilizing a parked bike.

Especially if that thing you hit is unmarked two inch deep fresh chip seal gravel and warm tar/oil underneath. I have mastered the 24mph to 0mph sprint; none are faster; than me :eek: That must have left a mark!

Since then I've also made a "Mr. Steve Inflatable Headrest Cushion". Haven't taken it out for a spin yet, but I will soon, and I think it's going to be a keeper. The only thing I have to add about that process is that maybe if you could find an inner tube the right size then you wouldn't have...

Well, bad news. The GoPro camera adapter on the rear Rideye camera broke probably while riding on a rough patch of road The camera was lost. I think the weight and length of the camera created too much torque for the bracket. A few days later while parking the bike in our storeroom, I...

Great write up Larry. Glad to see the Vendetta riders doing so well.

I have a SRAM Force 22 Yaw FD paired with 50/34 Q-Rings. Shifting is perfect. Setting up was fiddly but did not take long. Incidentally, I used my older 10 speed SRAM Rival brifters with the Force 22. The 2 trimming clicks on the left brighter are not a factor when shifting the 22.

Last Friday I received the new Headrest Cage Mount Kit from Cruzbike. I moved the two cages under the carbon seat to the new kit. Nice setup! I have had a BentUp Aero bag for a while but hadn't found a satisfactory way to mount it on the V20 neck rest . Because I am short the headrest is...

There is no need to change the brake housing if it working.

I believe the holes are in the correct place in order to be able to retrieve the bottles from the cages while riding. Using 4 washers and a longer bolt at each attachment point has provided adequate clearance of the cage from the frame on my V20. The reflection you see gives the...

During assembly I also found it necessary to shorten a tube on the V20. I chose the slider (the smaller diameter tube) and shortened it by about the same length as you did. The bottom bracket is higher, the handlebars are lower, there is more cockpit room and forward vision is better.

53 miles this morning and the seat was perfect. I couldn't tell any difference compared to it being bolted down. Now I have the frame space for storage. Just for interest I looked at the Velcro web pages and did not find any tape listed as "waterproof." Maybe when the Astronauts go into the...
