I had the same issue. I went to the LBS and they gave me a longer sleeve nut from an old bike.

Second Ride :) I haven't been on the bike in a week. Took her out today and did much, much better than the first day. Managed some slow speed turns, level starts without doing the Bedrock shuffle. Kept a straight line much better. I concentrated on keeping a light touch on the handlebars...

I felt disoriented driving my car home from the school! o_O

I wish I could. Work gets in the way, and it's dark by the time I get home.

I got my V20 put together and took it to the local school parking lot. I started on the Prescribed Method For Learning to Ride a Cruzbike. Coasted down the parking lot with my feet in the air several times. Like a drunken sailor. It's very disconcerting not being able to shift your weight to...

Do you just measure and cut? Is the star nut going to be in the way or need to be pushed down or anything?

A couple of days before Christmas.

Perhaps a new forum called Building a Frame Set with a sticky at the top? Issues I've encountered so far: 1) Boom too long for short legged folks. I drilled out the bottle cage nuts in the slider. 2) Not enough housing in a standard road bike cable/housing kit. Using a combination of Shimano...

Doug, Are you using Jagwire Road Pro Kits for cables/housings? I bought a set but it appears they are not long enough to run both FD and RD. Once you run a front brake cable, there isn't enough housing to go all the way back to the rear brake. Did you have trouble with this? Thanks.

Perfect. Thanks Bob.

The installation instructions call for a tool (TL-FD68) to determine whether to set the converter on or off when attaching the FD cable. I don't have one of those tools. Anyone here build a V20 with Ultegra 6800 and have experience with this? Regards, Mark

Ordered a hand painted edition V frame set today...:D:D:D Thanks for the input from everyone.

Doug, I agree with you that it takes a leap of faith. I've been researching recumbents for a year now, and reading this forum for a long time. I'm not crazy about stick bikes and their long chains and high saddles. I know the transition from DF won't be simple, but I love a challenge. I'm still...

Doug, you ride with Team CBC don't you? I think I saw your picture on FB with Shearon Harris in the background. I also ride with CBC and also live in Apex. I'm going to see Jim in a few days to borrow a Sofrider, and then choose either a Silvio or Vendetta. It will sure be nice to have someone...

On the home page, click products, then Vendetta. Scroll down until you see Model Evolution, in orange letters, on the left side.
