In my experience 38 are amazingly smooth, possibly more than necessary. They barely fit under fenders and as others noted you really want two rear fenders to keep the gunk from everything including your drivetrain. With respect to riding, descending, track stands, etc. you should read some of...

Also. First line of defence against stinky gear is getting rid of moisture. The ventisit allows for breathing but will still slow drying a little. So what I do is stop all fans, wait for blowing to stop, spray inside my shoes and ventisit (still on seat), place shoes by fan, turn fan back on low...

Which bag is that? Might it fit an s40? Did you modify it to get it to not sag? To add lights and reflectors? This thread is pleasantly filled with my kind of CAD (Cardboard Aided Design) and LVOTKs (Large Volume Of Tape Kludge).

Awesome write-up Larry. I am thrilled that you saved your "crash" for right next to the van as opposed to on Magic at the beginning! Nicely done. Have you had those kind of headrest issues outside of learning to ride? Those elevation charts are kind of scary = v20c climbing.

Where are you located?

I fear that the budget options are increase, large, and astronomical... As in “increase the budget” to speed via wheels.

Below is the story of my learning to ride no hands. Your Mileage May Very (YMMV). ———— I rode no hands on my diamond frame bike after trying and trying and eventually it became relatively easy and I would zip up my jacket or open a granola bar or cruise along without any issues. That started...

Welcome to the Cruzbike family! It is awesome to hear of your progress as you learn. Please ask any questions or search up the multitude of answers on this forum. My no hands learning experience https://forum.cruzbike.com/threads/no-hands.14655/

I have a 1998 Honda Odyssey and I fold down the rear and one of the middle seats and fit a QX100 or S40 diagonally without problem. A car trunk with fold down seats is harder but usually doable depending on the car dimensions but can be awkward to lift in and out. Mine has gone in a pickup...

There will be a performance gain from replacing the rear housing regardless of type because you will be replacing years old with new. However, if the housing is absorbing some of the force when you squeeze the brake then that might even be advantageous. Likely with the age of your bike, and the...

I thought I read somewhere that the 35 degree was a typo and it is more like 45 that can be reclined without minor modifications. I can’t find the 36 degree anywhere on the current Q45 sale page but even with 45 degree recline you will have similar or possibly better aero than a road bike-...

I definitely want to try out your solution as I have two problems with my older s40 seat. First, I slide forward whenever I am not pushing hard I find myself trying to lock my position with my arms and stabilizers them noticeably within a short period of time. Second, the recumbutt sets in...

Hi @ak-tux , Can you show some more pictures or diagrams of your seat bottom solution? I am not sure what I am looking at. Is the picture of the under side of the seat? I experience similar seat pan issues (though I don’t do nearly as long of rides. Thank you for posting your solution.

@Robert Holler Does Cruzbike have any off the shelf skewers to solve @artchris0002@yahoo.com’s dilemma?

If I recall my qx100 has 9 speed Sram grip shift and I was pleasantly surprised that when the clear cover over the number display came off (bonking the handlebars against a wall or bollard) at least twice over the course of several years of commuting it never broke and was always relatively easy...

At first I thought we were comparing the two pictures, then I realized that the gold V had the seat off so that we can see the frame comparison they look pretty much the same! I like the brushed aluminum look too. Maybe some camouflaged silver retroreflective logos on top of your clear coat can...

This is a nice looking bike with colours you can’t get any other way. If you are in Southern California you would do well to contact @Kat Linquist and pick up this Q45.

Hi @Robert Holler with the adjustable seat did the extension fit above or below the seat adjustable seat pan?

Coming soon (to your wallet’s dismay): The adjustable ventisit pad. The ultimate in adjustability. @Al_D Can you post pictures?

Re: clamp position There should be a key hole gap in the larger tube. (It might be facing up or down. If you prefer the other orientation I think you can loosen the clamps, remove the handlebars, rotate it 180 degrees, and re-clamp everything.) The clamp gap should be flush to the end of the...
