    Tubeless tires on stock V20 wheelset?

    I am pretty sure no - but hopefully Robert can chime in. If you have the wheels take them down to your LBS and ask them if they are tubeless ready. note: almost any wheel can probably be converted to a tubeless, but if the rim is not specifically engineered for the tubeless tire to seat into...

    V20 - S40 comparison overlay

    Randy, My gut says you will notice more speed difference between the S40 and the V20. As I said earlier this will most likely due to getting you head and shoulders out of the wind. This will depend on how much you work to get it that way. You seat selection will mater. If you want to be as fast...

    V20 - S40 comparison overlay

    Thanks - it is tough to have a race like that, but it felt good to me to be able to catch that lead group over and over even though it ultimately would ruin the 12-hour race for me. As your question on base speed between S40 and V20 - my "gut" feeling is about 2mph from my time on the S40...

    2022 Vendetta V20c with carbon fiber front end

    I am guessing there may have been only 2 or 3 gold and red bikes - hard to know since that number was never disclosed. Chances are Cruzbike paid extra to fly them to the US just to have something to sell to the Tribe before the fall.

    V20 - S40 comparison overlay

    Of course the V20 and and V20C can all have multiple (virtually unlimited) profiles when different chainstay lengths are used and the BB is adjusted by sliding the boom in and out on the slider therefore moving the BB in relation to the fixed point of the seat

    knees and hills

    I don't think it really helps with any of the items you mentioned. It mostly just smooths out rough roads. A nice thick seat pad is all I have ever needed.

    knees and hills

    All Cruzbikes are quite sturdy and reliable (of course ultimately the components you pick (and eventually replace) must also be reliable) Based on your stated goal, I would say the S40 would probably be the best choice. Lots of places to mount racks and bags. The ride is not harsh at all...

    How to make your Vendetta as fast as possible

    I think the Vendetta 20 degree seat angle is a real sweet spot, once you start going lower than that you can really feel the difference in power production - especially for all day ridding. There are also other factors that come into play when you are flatter: less visibility, and the inability...

    knees and hills

    Hi Weogo, I lived in Hendersonville (for 20 years) up until 2 years ago. I learned to ride a Cruzbike in that area and loved it. (also miss it) I also have knee problems. ACL repair 40 years ago on my left knee and now I am bone on bone. I can't walk a 1/2 mile without pain, but I can ride all...

    SOLD: V20 2015 (Red)

    Beautiful Bike Dave - I got one of these when they first came out - when they stopped making the "Ol Yella - Big Boom" version of the Vendetta. It is a classic now! You should not have any trouble selling it! But why - Won't the QX and S40 miss it? :rolleyes:

    Trainers for Cruzbikes

    My 2 cents: I have been riding my V20 on a Wahoo trainer since 2015 - and some years have put in thousands upon thousands of miles. I cannot say anything has been compromised. From the training aspect doing intervals on a trainer is so much easier than out on a real road, especially when you are...

    Aero Helmet Visors

    Yes it was. It was right when we turned into the stiff headwind and I know our speed was under 25mph. It had never come off before even at 55+mph downhills bursts I did in the mountains before. I suspect one of the magnets was marginally seated. A little bit of rust is also present in the holes...
