Great! I bet there are some untold stories just waiting to get out! Never know, next thing you'll be sindicated in your own blog. :)

Who purchased the Sofrider? If he/she is in the Seattle area I would like to talk to him/her about the bike and find out if there is any way I could see it and try out the seat. Thanks, Don Brown

I am living in Sooke BC I am looking for someone in the Victoria, Vancouver Seattle area who has a Sofrider V2 that I can talk to and possibly try out the bike. Thanks, Don Brown

That last one looks like it would work perfect. I'll see if I can find one local. ( in English ;-)

I looked at both post and swing arm racks. Do all post racks have the same angle? All I eyeballed side by side at the store seemed to have the same angle. The one I actually put on my bike 1) touched the wheel when the shock was compressed by just sitting on the bike and 2) wasn't even level...

John: I have a Freerider V2. Please share which specific 3rd party racks install without needing a metal shop? If I recall correctly the instruction manual suggested most mountain bike racks would work. That has not been my experience. I did a lot of shopping around for a rack that could...

There is a thread at BROL http://www.bentrideronline.com/messageboard/showthread.php?t=51407 and Maria has made a blog entry, where you can lodge your congrats to her: http://cruzbike.com/blogs/maria-parker There must be some photos around, eh Maria?

Thanks for the feedback. I'll look for a smaller gear up front. -d

OK, gut check time. I love my new Freerider v2, put 25 miles on it my first big ride. Easly twice the distance I could ride my Diamondback without my hands going to sleep. I'm 46 and 300 pounds. I picked up my old Diamondback over a year ago and started riding it to work. Four miles each...

Looking for cruzbikers, please post here if you wouldn't mind someone asking about your bike and possibly seeing it.

Hi Jon, how many teeth do you want on your chainring and how long cranks do you want?

Ah, you need to see this, which is the new website that contains the forum. One user log in for both web site and forum, so all done automatically. :) http://www.cruzbike.com/drupal/

Its getting there, John. Getting it all badged under the one theme is tricky.

No 2, yes you will be too big, you won't get arm room enough I think. No 1, top tube too high I reckon No 3, a few nice conversion on this out there. Buying good quality second hand parts in one go would be my vote, saves you a lot of messing around.

Hi Jack - My daughters are both living in L.A. this summer and will be "official" representatives of Cruzbike at the Rally on Saturday only. You'll remember Genna from Interbike '06. Lucia is working at the L.A. Times this summer. They are both competent on a Cruzbike, though Lucia just got...

Good report, Brian. FWIW, I Good report, Brian. FWIW, I agree 110% with what you say about a triple chainring setup. I love the 42 for most of the cruising I do. Kick it up to the big ring when really rolling, or on a fast downhill. I don't use the 30 much, but when I need it, I'm darned...

I'll check into that, Brian Lewis might know how its done. John
