    Is height an issue on the V?

    That’s not keeping up David that’s wheel sucking suction max and then giving up. The vendetta is simply not fair on most terrain to our cycling friends on dfs

    Is height an issue on the V?

    I’m 6ft 2 in and shrinking. Large chain stay. The new vendetta v20 model is much simpler to achieve individual fit. The V2 was not so simple to adjust. The bike for me being slim with a virtual horizontal boom has room aplenty. Option curve slider if I needed more or invest in a gut. Make no...

    Paging Tribal Elders and Component Wonks- Caution Long

    I never liked avid brakes. Using dot brake fluid . Anhydrous absorbs water and is pretty nasty stuff generally . And yes I did flush change fluid as per spec.Inevitably my experience was one of corrosion and seizing . In deed a pair of juicy ultimates failed in warranty. Avid were acquired by...

    Yes quite a few people do lean out and take photos. So far never the driver . You know you are a cruzbiker when you ride your cruzbike everywhere because it looks the goods.

    Upgrade to T50?

    Cheapest insurance on any bike is a chain check tool. Cross chaining is always not recommended especially mechanical actuated. So many u tube vids to help these days. I encourage everyone to maintain their own machines if possible. Maintenance cannot be ignored. It gets expensive quickly...

    Q45 - Has anyone tried Sram Eagle GX 10-50?

    That’s plenty of climbing there. Well done on those audax rides. Great decision to dump the fags 15 years ago. I bet sometimes though when you change out a chainring you think “ be nice if it was already there” in the form of a 2 x Lol. But it works and you’re riding it so it’s a big winner.

    Q45 - Has anyone tried Sram Eagle GX 10-50?

    I’m loving the nostalgia for the triple based on hard facts. But we are being sold the latest and greatest pup and for sure 1 x are the bomb. For your old knees lol. But gee they look so good. Stick em on gravel grinders and downhill nutter bikes where they make good sense. Or on a T50...

    Paging Tribal Elders and Component Wonks- Caution Long

    Riding at 3 mph on a meant to go fast tt vendetta seems anecdotally universally difficult on flat ground let alone steep gradients. So it’s a compact and mtb rear and get strong on hills . I have much loved triples on my trikes and love the range for carrying extra weight but note anything mid...

    Hi! New To Cruzbikes & Trying to Decide.

    Ouch that hurts. Do ratz s training drills it is for the best. As to which bike to buy...just go with what you think. I reckon either would suit your needs with s 40 being the faster pick.
