So does the boom and slider
So does the boom and slider (reversed on Vendetta) overlap at the headset region on the Silvo? Looks like the overlap is much further down from the photos I've seen.
I need to look at a new Silvio in person... Should be hooking up with Tim when it gets warmer...
The whole way
Hmmmm... What do you mean by " ... so that the cables could be run internally the whole way... "?
On the Vendetta all four cable housings exit at the pivot cage at the top of the headset.

Hi Rizwan,
I don't think your
Hi Rizwan,
I don't think your bike should be that sensitive. On my Vendetta, a Quest, and a Silvio I could pretty much pedal like mad and use normal inputs to the handlebar without any of the sensitivity or wobbling.
I have not seen a conversion kit other...
I did not notice any
I did not notice any difference in pedal steer either for the brief period I was riding both the Quest and my Vendetta.
I did however, notice other aspects of the pedal stroke as the Quest has 155mm cranks and my Vendetta has 170mm.
Interestingly, pedaling the...

Cool, a Cruzbike Di2 MTB but I betcha can't manage a dropper seat pan...
PS - I searched over on MTBR Forums for "Di2" in the drive train section and didn't get any results. Maybe you could start a new trend?

I don't know Bob. All I know is I confirmed with John before ordering - just to know what I was getting - and then assembled everything and the left is indeed friction and the right is indexed.
I presume if the indexing wears out as I've read some of these...
Curious about heat treatment and finishing
Steve,
I'm curious about heat treatment and finishing for your 60mm extension. Does it need heat treatment and if so, how did you do so?
Also, how did you finish it? It looks really good in your photos.

No, they reduced the raised
No, they reduced the raised roof by several inches. I suspect to make it look less commercial since they are pushing a much more spiffed up passenger "wagon" than what was available in the model Doug has (or had). Doug did you keep your old TC or trade it in on the...

Hi Ken - Yeah I measured the old one and read about the new one and was waiting for the dimensions to really decide if it would work. The LWB is necessary and welcome - I wish the old model had a LWB option too.
I had finally gotten ahold of their spec sheet...
I've been eyeballing the 2014
I've been eyeballing the 2014 Ford Transit Connect Van for this purpose. If I measured the demo right the Vendetta will go in fully assembled. Of course the van model is just a two seater but two people is usually all I have in my car anyway....

Rick,Could you post a
Rick,
Could you post a centered rear and front shot of your Silvio with the Radical Banana Racers with the camera about at top of the tire height or there about? I've been thinking about getting a set of these for my Vendetta at some point.
Thanks,

Bike Sebring long loop out
Bike Sebring long loop out towards Frostproof at the turn around part way around Reedy Lake has a poker chip barrel. Part of the race process is to toss the numbered poker chip assigned to you into the barrel at the turn around to help record you were actually there...
