That looks like a nice That looks like a nice position you have with the bullhorns. Your 150mm extension places your BB height similar to my 100mm extension. Given that I am shorter so my shoulders are lower, the stock handlebars were okay for me. But I can see how for you, they wouldn't do...

With Marc's bracket, one With Marc's bracket, one would be able to fully adjust handlebar position independent of BB height. This height adjustable bracket would be an elegantly simple solution to refining the cockpit adjustment. I heartily agree with Ratz' 3 points for refined fit. The other...

Great insights on mounting Great insights on mounting them on the straight portion of the bar, Ratz. I wonder if the China company making those carbon bullhorns that are copies of the Zipp VukaBull could make one without the curve! Then we would have enough "reach" room to play with. When...

I updated the title of this I updated the title of this thread to reflect the excellent contributions towards innovative bullhorn setups by Ratz. The dropbar/brifte setup I have is fairly obvious, but there is much more to be explored with bullhorns! Ratz, I am really interested now that...

Ratz, I really like the look Ratz, I really like the look of your bullhorn brifters. Great job! Cutting off the end and mounting the brifters like that is ingenious!! I think that's the first I have ever seen and I have been looking for ways to do that setup. While I am happy with my setup, I...

Lisa, good to hear that you Lisa, good to hear that you are not only alive and kicking, but your joie de vivre is alive and well amidst adversity. May you continue to find much joy and renewal in this new adventure, and I hope the opportunity will come to do that on the S2that you have been...

Hey guys, where has Lisa / thebean gone to? She was so excited about Silvio 2, worried about the seat angle, but last I remember she was going to test ride one... Lisa where are you and what are you up to?

I have often thought that the I have often thought that the first Cruzbike prototype designer/rider (we know who that was) must have be amazingly innovative and daring to dream up this bike and think it would actually work. Then it did and broke many world records. Congratulations on 10 years...

Where is the "LIKE" button to Where is the "LIKE" button to bladderhead's suggestion on sending me a Vendetta? Jeremy, the many detailed shots are cos the Silvio 2 is so darn beautiful with so many lines to explore!! After a few wide shots one finishes all one needs to see. Tim...

Didn't we already have this Didn't we already have this conversation?? http://cruzbike.com/silvio-drive-wheel-removal KiwiGuy, if you like "quiver" then my configuration provides all what you asked for using a Minoura Saddle Cage Holder and a Lezyne Flow Cage. My Topeak saddle bag holds...

Some really good comments Some really good comments from a loyal fan base, which shows how much we appreciate John asking in the first place. I agree with all these comments that R&D be done on Vendetta which should command a premium price. The S2 really made a huge splash and the buzz on the...

Nicely done! Very practical Nicely done! Very practical for commuting.

You fellas are encouragingly You fellas are encouragingly optimistic! I was controlling my breathing after cresting a hill that needed my lowest 39x32 gear. This was me in the same event one year ago. Notice evolution of bicycle! ;)

Tuloose, your critique of Tuloose, your critique of brifters is based on your current setup which sounds like something is wrong. A good set of brifters will NEVER miss a gear change unless something is badly adjusted or mechanically wrong. Your description of shifting with large lever sounds...

Full marks to Ratz for his Full marks to Ratz for his incredible patience (or should I say his wife's patience?) on the handlebar project! :) Silvio and Vendetta owners certainly have options to choose from. After a couple of months commuting and a couple of centuries on my handlebars, I have...

Tim, your headrest looks Tim, your headrest looks really short by the looks of your leg length. Is it pressing against the back of your neck? You may find that lengthening the headrest until it supports the base of the skull but NOT touching the muscles on the back of your neck that that may be...

Thanks John, good looking Thanks John, good looking bike eh? Hats off to the designer...plus my wheel decals are in sync too! Ha ha! Seriously, I am thinking that one side being "in line" like what you described is a good thing from a biomechanical standpoint, because in that position...

It's real easy to find It's real easy to find yourself in the organizer's gallery when you ride a recumbent! Sure way of getting yourself in then published pics too! Here is what the photographer snapped of me on this last century. This looks much better than when I was sliding on gravel!

Welcome to the light! You Welcome to the light! You will now be pestered for photos and updates of your build! You will not have any interference with the supplied flared bars and brifter setup. I am roadie so I loved my brifters, but if you are used to bar end shifting then I am sure the...

Thanks guys! Yes, Thanks guys! Yes, unfortunately all riding in Singapore has a lot of traffic lights. The good thing though about our surroundings is that there are gas/petrol stations everywhere so it's easy to refuel and have a toilet break on any ride! :) Yup, I am past the "don't...
