...too high and the knees throw turbulence above. Cruzbike’s wind tunnel tests revealed this. You could do some of your own CdA tests comparing different chainstay lengths. You’ll probably get the best with the bb height close to hip level. Shorter crank length may clean up aerodynamics as well.

Al, I think the decision on chainstay length is based on finding the right balance of comfort, stability and aero. As Larry notes, the larger the size of the chainstay, the higher the bottom bracket will be. I've tried all three sizes, and settled on the middle one (I'm 6 feet tall). As...

Primarily your leg length and also how far above the seat you feel comfortable having the BB. about 8" is a good value. Most people under 6' still use a medium chainstay because when you move the BB out, it lowers the BB. It is usually not too low and better than being higher. It is best to have...

What considerations are most important in choosing which chainstay length to use?

Your chainstay looks to be about the right length, which is good. Do you happen to have the original Cruzbike seat pan and headrest? Some people really like the Thor-style seat, like what you have, partly because it offers more shoulder support, and brings the shoulders more upright, creating...

Your Quest in the photo shows the chainstay as almost in a straight line - but that is only a happy accident of the boom adjustment. You would have little reason to do this, but imagine shortening the boom as much as it's possible to accomplish. In that case, the offset joints you note will...

...and more wheel flop than most bikes, but the combination with the heavy front end works well. wheelbase 1130.3 mm 44.5 inch chainstay length 476.1 mm 18.7 inch rake (front fork offset) 30.3 mm 1.2 inch head tube angle (steering axis) 70.6 degrees trail 91.3 mm 3.6 inch wheel flop 28.6 mm...

yep we are all physically different. Being smaller is an aero advantage. Edit but longer limbs have a mechanical advantage and the air is better up here. ;) the consensus seems to be knees at eye level no higher as you’ll see diminishing returns. chain stays I thought once came in five sizes...

This is a pristine like new example of a late-model Cruzbike S30. It was originally purchased as a “Complete Bike” (rather than just a frameset), it’s virtually unused (less than 200 miles, maybe less than 100), and it has all original parts as built by Cruzbike. Here are the specs: Cruzbike...

I was just thinking how similar G4 and Cruzbike are if we change the pedals and Cassette position. Pedals on the wheel, cassette at the BB. ofc things will change too 1. The bike will get longer 2. Change to fitting the bike now should be my moving the seat, so need to change the fixed seat...

You could also contact CB for a replacement chainstay that will give you the current BB clamp. I went that route on my S30 because I use their short chainstay. They won't give you one for free, but it will take care of the clamp-BB interface issue. Or...hmmm...I still have the medium length...

I'm getting inspired by your post to look at reviving my Sofrider by replacing the derailleurs with an IGH setup like yours. The one question I have is whether the front suspension and slight excentricity when the front triangle is adjusted will play hell with the chain when there is no rear...

hope it is. Ask Larry to sign frame that way it will get home to Australia faster.

If it's a standard length chainstay at 496mm I should be good to go.

My current chainstay length is 490mm on no3. So..length is a question.. easy people .. stop snickering

Your V2 fork should work fine. Mine did. All you need is the boom assembly and the correct length chainstay. Contact CB directly to ask if they have such spares available. I've attached a pic.

Hope these help.

Twhbent. My chainstay us 19.5 in what length is the large u have

One thing to keep in mind with the Force AXS is the proprietary AXS flat-top chain has larger, narrower rollers that are not the same as Eagle and aftermarket 12s chains. The AXS flat-top chain has less inside clearance and requires the narrower teeth on the Red/Force cassettes and chainrings...
