Maps.Me uses OSM data -- just Maps.Me uses OSM data -- just that Maps.Me makes the downloading super simple. I install it on the phones of visitors who come to my city, so they can walk and find their way back to my home or to wherever they are going. Not cycle specific of course, but very easy...

Don't think it can be done Don't think it can be done due to difference in handlebar diameter. The Ergon grips are great. I use them on my DF with flat handlebars. But they are good for distributing weight on the palm - a problem one doesn't have with recumbents. Plus they are heavy so I don't...

Great knowledge sharing Great knowledge sharing here! i am having to push back my ride later in the year due to family needs. Kids are more important than bike! I got up to centuries on one day and 80km on the next. Felt good on Silvio, working out niggly pains here and there. Figuring out...

I wanted to do long rides I wanted to do long rides faster and more comfortably in a bike that could handle urban traffic. I have one of the first Silvio 2 bikes and it meets my needs perfectly. At the time it was cheaper than Vendetta so that was part of the reason. I also wasn't sure of...

I am a bit late as I only I am a bit late as I only just read the news. Much of the words said echo my feelings. It is sad to hear because we owners feel close to this small company. I am proud to ride one of the earlier Silvio 2's produced. John, thank you for your innovation and gifting...

Thanks all. That book Thanks all. That book "Distance Cycling" I bought on Kindle is very good. Highly recommended for those thinking of going above 100 miles in one event. Learning more about my own body and limitations as I go. Pain, soreness, periodization. Today I did a 170km ride...

That really is amazing! That really is amazing! Personally the offset wheels make it look even MORE intriguing. A beautiful solution that appears very promising, though I don't see how a quick 1 minute wheel swap could include rear brakes...

Thanks Eric and Snilard! Thanks Eric and Snilard! I am glad I asked for advice... I will definitely take it easy the first 2 days, and keep if my mood is low will take that recovery day. I may leave a day earlier to give me more buffer time as this is my first long multi-day ride and I won't...

I have been planning and training myself up for my 40th birthday present - a 100 miles/170km a day solo ride over 6 consecutive days from Singapore - Malaysia - Thailand on my Silvio 2. I have never done anything like this before. I've been increasing mileage, dropping weight, aware of muscle...

Okay, no more lane splitting Okay, no more lane splitting videos for the international community! :) Others are right - it's appropriateness is dependent on culture. Over here you don't do it at speed, but motorcyclists and cyclists can do it when traffic is stopped or crawling in a traffic...

I finally got my Mobius ActionCam hooked up again with an external battery pack. On my commute, I hit a patch of heavy traffic that allowed me to lane split safely. When I was first contemplating a Silvio, I had wondered whether I could be as nimble as when commuting on my DF road bike. Well...

I got a good deal on I got a good deal on shortened cranks 130bcd but if I had a choice new, I would indeed go for compact 110bcd to have the option of swapping to smaller chainring if needed for a hilly tour.

That's a lot of custom work! That's a lot of custom work! Sounds great - I want to see! :)

Instead of "attach a file" Instead of "attach a file" click on the IMAGE icon on the toolbar, above where you type the message. It's there one that looks like a landscape of mountains and a sun. Use that to insert images.

Really neat and clean! This Really neat and clean! This would seem great on a Vendetta so that one can have higher seat on a slow ride around town, then remove for typical fast cruising! The damper would be effective too. Of course one still can't do this with the stock seat...unless a rubber...

SuperSlim: I think we all SuperSlim: I think we all tend to complain about our own country's drivers! Tons of complaints and posting videos of bad drivers and bad cyclists in Singapore! I do find people give me a lot more room in HOW I RIDE my Silvio as compared to my previous bikes. This is...

Yes the lower end Garmin Yes the lower end Garmin VIRB looks really good for the price - 3 hr video time I think. I am a Garmin fan and have a VivoSmart on the way. If price was not a factor I would get that VIRB Elite camera! :) In other battery pack options for lights and cameras, I came...

Thanks for the suggestion on Thanks for the suggestion on the Dinotte. I know they are really good but I have never seen one in person. My main tail light is a Cygolite Hotshot 2W which is really good. I have second one on the way so I can have 2 behind me, one on each cage. This will act...

Wow, that look's amazing Wow, that look's amazing Andrew. Congratulations on a patient job well done!
