    Disc wheel with disc brake, not rim brake?

    Would this work: reinforce an area, make an access hole, use tape for cover? Similar to @RojoRacing 's carbon covers.

    Comparison: Q45, QX100, Conversion Kit, S40

    Even though my QX100 is a full bike with all but handlebars stock from Cruzbike I often prefer the earlier Conversion Kit seen in my avatar. I purchased the Conversion Kit used from Hamish Barker in 2014 and had it shipped all the way from New Zealand complete with everything except a frame. I...

    Somewhere around lunch time I decided I better just get out there and ride even if it was to the nearest corner and back so I went outside. The fresh air and the pile of cardboard in the garage called my name and I hacked together a tail box to put around my bike bag behind my seat on my...

    My Very First Recumbent is a V20

    Would a dab of glue hold the washer to the axle nut, axle, or fork? And eliminate this small source of neuroticism? (Much of the neurotic is what makes us love you; don’t change that!)

    My Very First Recumbent is a V20

    Try not to fight the sway; instead feel the natural sway back and forth with the rhythm of the cadence. Do that gently and at low power so you don’t scare yourself though. (Ask me how I know.) It is similar to riding no hands on a diamond frame but the timing is different (hypothesizing...

    Is the S30 basically a higher seat angle V20?
