    easy testing of aerodynamic drag

    I think wind conditions will affect the result greatly as evidenced by average speed and the wattage it takes to maintain that speed around a track with zero wind compared to a windy day. You always loose speed with windy conditions.

    easy testing of aerodynamic drag

    Yes - but properly calibrated for correct crank length before each test. That is from the stock frame, stock front end, curved slider. Only the Chicago Century numbers are using the Prototype - I had the stubby bars on it too. The other "interesting" and rather "unmeasurable" item with the...

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    I would suggest to do this quickly. I am no doctor, but I do know that you weight will affect your blood pressure dramatically. I would guess you already do not need the dosage you were taking and what you are taking is not too good for your body in its currently healthier state. Keep up the...

    I broke my Perez Clamps and Cruzbike is out of stock...alternatives?

    Jesse, email Robert at Cruzbike (robert@cruzbike.com) and he can probably send you some of the original clamps if he has any - and I am pretty sure he will. They are kind of PITR (Pain in the Rear) to put in themselves, but once in they will not move or come loose. Are both of the Perez clamps...

    Neck rest?seat angle issues

    Cruzbike also makes another neck-rest option that attaches to the headrest frame. $60. They call it the Suspension Adjustable Headrest: http://cruzbike.com/suspension-adjustable-headrest Personally as a short person, I had to cut about an inch out of the headrest frame and put it back together...

    What did you do to your Cruzbike today?

    I hate stopping too - It is such an "average speed" killer! ;)

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    Are you saying that I will be "grumpy", or just shorter when I am done?

    Clicking noise on my new V

    It was the front if I remember right, and now that my memory is coming back: It was not that there was actually a really loose spoke. It was just a spoke "rubbing/scrapping" against another. It was very odd. I truthfully cannot remember what I did to fix it. Maybe put a touch of grease between...

    easy testing of aerodynamic drag

    The demo was really cool. Biggest challenge would be to get a good representation of the Vendetta (with your body on it) into the program. Wow. I wonder if they have some tools for that. Maybe videos or pictures from many angles.

    easy testing of aerodynamic drag

    I feed my data in the new tool for my laps up in Chicago when I did my Century record attempt this past August: (I have added my speed and watts for each lap for comparators). This was the "prototype" Cruzbike rear end, with Kent Pol's seat at about 2% from horizontal And then again at my...

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    I'm going back on full Keto diet as of yesterday. I have been a "bad" boy since Sebring and put on about 15 pounds! :eek: Probably a combination eating too much and not riding as much. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: Goal is to loose 22 by Sebring and ride at 65Kg. Secondary goal is to get my FTP...

    Clicking noise on my new V

    My first Cruzbike - a used Silvio was clicking and clicking. I looked at about everything and tore everything down and put it all back together - still not change. Finally "BentAero" went riding with me and rode really close to the "noise". It ended up not being a clicking after all. It was a...

    2017 Cruzbike retreat in White Lake, NC

    Here is a video of when Jim, Kyle, Alvin and I tried to gang up on a 7.1 mile KOM around the lake. Jim knows the guy that has it and really wanted to break it. Jim, Kyle and I stayed together pretty good, but Alvin was having trouble staying close. It is hard to do on a recumbent compared to an...
