I would start it, but... I don't have a Cruzbike yet. :(

Is there a chance of setting up a user's gallery? Sometimes I like to visit this site just to look at other people's bikes for inspiration.

I don't have a Silvio yet, but have already disassembled my road bike to scavenge parts. I plan to build a Silvio up with Shimano Ultegra 10-speed (c. 2006), Ultegra Brakes and Truvativ Rouleur crankset with Rotor rings (I believe they are 50 x34). I still need to purchase a wheelset, so that is...

Thanks John That helps a lot :) It's easy to overlook the small icon.

I send you a message...

I can send it to Brazil :-) Give me a day or two to get an exact shipping cost. About the cold-set rear triangle, I use a vise equipped with hard plastic wedges to set the frame tubes into shape. Beginning close to the botom bracket, the lower stays were adjusted first, then the upper...

I am looking to pass on my Tiara Pro frameset that I have been working on. Basically a shift in priorities have made it so that I haven't time to complete. This frame has been modified: Removal of braze-ons (cable guides) and brake studs Rear triangle cold-set to accomodate a...

I'd say that's him. His Silvio looks amazing with dual discs and his average speed of 25.4 mph is nothing to be ignored either. Not bad since he is on a road bike whereas the competition is on machines that are clearly best suited to closed courses.

Hi Ken, That is a beautiful Hi Ken, That is a beautiful bike you have there. As I do not yet own a Silvio, I can not offer any andvice of any merit. In looking at the photo you posted and the ones of the new Silvio that Mr. Tolhurst posted, and I see that the primary method of adjusting...

Thumbs up!

Koala Bottle I like these bottles as the magnetic cages make for easy return to the behind-the-seat position. http://koalabottle.com/

Sorry to see you go... Thanks for posting your experience to go along with your reasons for selling your Silvio frameset. I guess I was one of the fortunate ones where I felt at home on the Cruzbike (Sofrider) within a day of riding. Some of the issues you had, namely the handling on descents...

I'm late to the party...but WOW That's an amazing looking bike!

My opinion "I have read stories of the MBB making love to the rider's leg, which I can easily visualize it doing to my leg." We're all adults here, so I won't comment on the appropriateness of the comment from the beginning of this thread, but I think you need to understand that the...

My hat is off to you My hat is off to you for being a competitve triathlete. And MULTIPLE Ironman competitions? That's almost unthinkable. I also used to race, up into 2010 and have given that up. I have been on and off of riding recumbents since 2007 and my first experience on a Cruzbike let...

Please forward my comment to Mr. Obree Mr. Obree, I personally am waiting for September to witness history unfold. I have followed you thus far on your journey to break the world speed record with an ultimate goal of hitting the 100 miles per hour mark; all of this done on a bike you...

Hostel Shoppe Sponsors an Annual Ride The 2012 Midwest Recumbent Rally. http://www.hostelshoppe.com/recumbent_rally.php Congrats on ordering a Vendetta and being able to get back on the bike. I agree that a recumbent-exclusinve ride would be great, but 'bents are still a rarity, but...

Any more photos? I'd love to see the new Silvio built up completely. And some action shots would be great also!

Did you ever want something so badly that you obsess about it? Well that's me. Right now, my sole bike is a 2006 Titus Modena with no wheels (I sold them to pay my medical bills) and due to my health issues, I can ride at a good speed as stoker on my friend's tandem. I long to get back on...
