won't last long at that price... ...and I picked a perfect time to lose my job :(. The good thing is that now I have more time to ride. :)

Eric I don't own an iPhone, but had an iPod Touch that looked like it went to heck and back...until I dropped it in the toilet. I iPods don't float. EVERYONE else puts their iPhone in a case.and they never get to enjoy the design and feel of its materials.

Ivan Stylin' @Ian Smith: You are right about Ivan's wheels, but I imagine he'll ride by so fast that all you'll see is a blur. ANOTHER Silvio worth noting is the "all black Silvio"; one of my favorites. The stealth look would be even better with all carbon rims or disc brakes - no brake track...

Eric. I wish we were neighbors! I would happily restore the finsh on your chainstay. Painting and refinishing bikes is my hobby. Hopefully your Vendetta is back on the road soon or even replaced completely.

I feel your pain I'm not waiting for components or building a new Silvio, but I am thinking about a Vendetta in 2014 and I need a savings plan that won't deprive my wife and kids of the good life too. Remember to post pics as you go along; it seems that Ivan set the bar, but we're all...

Amazing Work Ivan, I have to say that I think you have the best looking Silvio I have ever seen and your photos do this fine machine the justice it deserves. I can imagine that anyone considering the Silvio would be convinced to buy one based on how you have shown yours. You know, between...

good point With the specialized nature of these bikes, I don't mind being made into an example if it keeps others from damaging their Cruzbikes. :-)

thanks, doug I appreciate your knowledge and your in depth explanation. I do want to say that, like you describe, I used a pulsing motion to break the part free. I liken it to "bouncing" the cheater bar slightly in anticipation of that moment when the part breaks free. I certainly don't want to...

I'll give.that a try I am no photographer and getting the crack to show up isn't easy. When I get home, I will try again.

I was in the middle of overhauling my Silvio when disaster struck. In removing the sealed BB, it was siezed and wouldt budge. I used a Campagnolo BB tool with a wrench and cheater bar with a good soaking of PB Blaster on the BB. I heard a loud metallic crack and the BB began to unthread. I...

I have two bikes Cruzbike Silvio Cannondale Quick SL 3

I don't have either of the I don't have either of the bikes that use this, but it sure is interesting to see how it works. Thanks, Eric, for the great photo and explanation. You have to admit, the design is ingenious!

sweet light mount You ought to consider selling those; it looks almost like an "official" accessory.

locking skewers Has anyone here seen the skewers that won't release until the bike i? turned 90 degrees, perpendicular to the road surface?

shock going flat Jeremy, I had a similar issue on my Silvio and I wasn't sure if it was user error or what, but one time I decided to pump it up to 200 psi and from then on, it hasn't gone flat on me. I did bleed the air once and an brought it back to 150 psi, where it remains quite constant...

nice bike and backdrop This looks like the kind of place I would like to ride. Your Silvio looks great and I can see you are really enjoying it.

no point blinding the ants... That' funny. Why not get a second Cateye tail lamp and balance the symmetry? Besides, two lights are better than one.

U lock considerations The position of the hole may make locking with a U lock difficult unless the shackle is long enough to fit through the frame and around the stationary object to which you want to secure your bike. I may be wrong about this, however. I don't lock up my Silvio simply for...

Not mine, but I stumbled across this donor bike on Craig's List. http://columbia.craigslist.org/bik/3971359879.html Nice outgrown Gary Fisher Joshua 24b Mountain Bike THIS POSTING WILL REMAIN UNTIL SOLD!! We have a few people who try to Scam or Send Junk e-Mails to Craig's List...

Low Silvio Stock Sounds like a good "problem" to have, John.
