New Magnic Lights Kickstarter New Magnic Lights Kickstarter Project here and I'm a backer this time for a set of lights so I may need Mr. Tolhurst's help in figuring out how to make them work on the front of my Vendetta. The rear should not be a problem...

Bob, be sure to let us know Bob, be sure to let us know how it does with your neck and back. I haven't seen any posts from Lisa in a while but I'm sure she will be interested in your experience. Oh, and we like pictures! -Eric

Hi Tim, Yeah I hadn't thought Hi Tim, Yeah I hadn't thought of interfering with the vehicle lights although now that you mention it I've seen that same problem on vehicles hauling single or multiple bikes with just the bike or bikes doing a good job of blocking the brake lights and turn...

Vendetta FD routing photos - Vendetta FD routing photos - both mine and John Dorlon's. John's Vendetta has an extra hole in the metal webbing/gusset that allows for a better angle to the FD cable clamp and also acts as a cable guide to discourage sideways movement of the cable housing where it...

Merry Christmas to all my Merry Christmas to all my Cruzbike friends! -Eric

Merry Christmas to you and Merry Christmas to you and Gabriel too. He rides very well and looks like he is having a lot of fun. -Eric

Hmmm, I thought so but didn't Hmmm, I thought so but didn't feel like joining to find out. I like to share some of my rides with non-riders who are interested in what I do, typically family and friends and it seems like they pretty much get the full functionality just looking at my links...

I don't see much useful I don't see much useful information when I click on Strava links like this. That said I'm not a member and quite fond of Ride With GPS so I haven't been all that interested in Strava. Does it do more if you are a member? -Eric

I used a miter box, some I used a miter box, some clamps, a hacksaw, a file and some sandpaper to trim my boom. The miter box and clamps are to insure a perpendicular cut. Very easy to cut with the hacksaw. Also, I trimmed a little bit and then tested fit and then trimmed a little bit and...

Have you used your Talon Have you used your Talon much? I gave mine to my son for his DF because I would have needed to modify the fork clamp to account for going from 100mm OLD to 130mm OLD or put the bike in backwards the way you have. I didn't think it would be stable enough backwards...

Ah ha! So that is your Ah ha! So that is your solution to prevent the boom from getting stuck due to over insertion. -Eric

1) I used the double quick 1) I used the double quick release on the Quest only to the point I ended up with a scar on my knee because it didn't hold in a tight turn and down I went . And I had muscled the clamps very tight but they still slipped. After that I used a hex wrench to tighten...

John, are you also closing John, are you also closing the ends of the Vendetta HF tube? -Eric

Looks like you were smoking Looks like you were smoking along up to around mile 50 give or take and then having to earn your sweat up that slope the last 10 to 12 miles. Very cool. I like your photos too. You and the bike look really good and seemed to be drawing some attention. What did...

I like separating I like separating CRUZBIKE from SILVIO like that as the two together looked cluttered but I'm not as keen on the block lettering, the font size, and some of the orientation (sorry Andrew). I kind of like the CRUZBIKE logo and it aligns well with the shape of the stay but...

EZ Bike Stand. Very handy and EZ Bike Stand. Very handy and has held up my Vendetta in pretty strong breezes when on a flat hard surface. The bike did fall over once when I tried to use it on the grass. http://ezbikeproducts.com/ I really like it. -Eric

All bike stands by their very All bike stands by their very nature are going to take up space, some more than others. I bought the PCS-10 for 2 reasons: Clamp jaw opening was larger and the clamp more robust It folds up very compactly when not in use click for larger image...

I have extremely limited tire I have extremely limited tire experience but I would be inclined to double check all of the fittings on the bike to make sure nothing was loose or worn. I'd also double check to make sure the tires are evenly seated. Do these have any kind of tread or pattern...

I bought my Wahoo Blue SC I bought my Wahoo Blue SC around Aug or Sep 2012 and replaced the battery about 9 months later in June 2013 right before the N24HC but that was just to make sure the battery was fresh. It turned out a bust however because I ran into a problem with the external battery...
