I have not yet gone up into I have not yet gone up into Malaysia yet. Hoping to do that in a short tour or a long solo overnight ride soon! On Sunday I completed the event I was training for. Ending being exactly 100 miles again, so that's 2 centuries a week apart now. Unfortunately, I...

With the lower seat back With the lower seat back angle of Silvio 2 and the increasing numbers of people wanting to get extensions (and the highly positive remarks of those who have extensions), could Cruzbike increase the length of the carboyoke by 60mm for a future version? Not make 2 options...

What's the eBay link? Cos you What's the eBay link? Cos you said eBay but the link you gave is Amazon and it's not $4.95 there! :)

Here is the recipe I used. Here is the recipe I used. It's all over the net, videos too if you are not comfortable in the kitchen. I made half the recipe and had leftovers for my son's lunch box...

My Silvio did her first century (160km) yesterday, and it was my first solo-century too as it was a training ride for a separate group event one week from now where I will do 200km. The event will be in the mid-day tropical sun, so I did my own century in this heat too. Acck... went up to 38 C...

Hey, that might have been me Hey, that might have been me that recommended the RT-82 shoes! :) To me they are the perfect blend of road look, lightweight yet with recess SPD two-bolt cleat. They are designed to work especially well with the A600 SINGLE-SIDED spd pedal. Light as ultegra road...

Nice job on that the custom Nice job on that the custom chainstay extension. I think 60mm is very sensible. That may be the first customized Silvio chainstay extension we have seen! :)

Thule Pack n Pedal Tour Rack I spotted my friend with the Thule Pack n Pedal Tour Rack, and he kindly lent it to me to test the fitting on my Silvio. I thought this would be useful for the Cruzbike community. In summary, the Thule Rack would work with a minor cutting modification to make the...

LOL! Yes you can! My Silvio LOL! Yes you can! :) My Silvio is great for long commutes, would be great with short commutes too. Plus last night I went out with a roadie gang. I was the only bent in the pack with short inclines up to 7% but mostly flat. I was wanting experience riding with other...

Mark, yours were some of the Mark, yours were some of the posts that formed my research into bents. I was browsing around never seriously considering buying until I found Cruzbike which made sense to me the more I investigated. After 2 years if following developments, I got the Silvio 2. Quite...

For more comfort on real-life For more comfort on real-life roads then definitely the Silvio over the Vendetta due to the suspension. The Silvio 2.x is faster than 1.5 due to aerodynamics so you decide whether you want the lower seat angle or not. For me, definitely I wanted that and the 27 deg...

Thanks the in-depth reporting Thanks the in-depth reporting Ratz. Looking forward to hearing more and seeing pics. After a month with my bars I really like them. Interference while shifting with legs is a non-issue. I am getting better at right turns and need to be more confident leaning...

Yup, the Zefals are not super Yup, the Zefals are not super clear, but they are clear enough, light, and will not break. For the purpose of checking traffic they are superb. I was just thinking this today as I was preparing to overtake a stopping bus. I could see in the mirror, that a car was...

Ha! I had a similarly cheap Ha! I had a similarly cheap one installed on my motorcycle (though that one was wired to the 12V battery not on a separate battery like this). Never thought of it for my Silvio...interesting idea!

Look forward to hearing how Look forward to hearing how you like the bike, especially coming from high end carbon DFs (like I did). To post a pic click the PICTURE icon in the toolbar (next to the coloured "video" icon). Now you have a choice of pasting the URL a picture you have uploaded...

Super sweet setup indeed! I Super sweet setup indeed! I love how the front-end is totally clean. Your efforts really paid off well. Looks like that oversized Vendetta boom has more than one purpose!

What We Make Of It After that nice ride, I've been trying to find little bits of road less traveled in my tiny country. I discovered this little excursion which shows my steed with other steeds! It almost feels like I'm in Kentucky again... The average person here says, "Singapore...

Hi Ratz, will be looking for Hi Ratz, will be looking for updates with interest! I chose not to go any handlebar that curved forward like in your Profile Design Zero handlebar above. Some aero drop bars do that as well. This doesn't work for me as the tops of thighs would touch the bars and I...

I was riding to work the other day, when 2 DF riders pulled up beside me asking for directions. The Sherlock in me deduced they were North American visitors (Toronto actually), so I told them to follow me as they were too late to meet the group they were trying to meet with. Not rushing to work...
