    Is the S30 basically a higher seat angle V20?

    S30 is shorter wheelbase and rear suspension with a seat angle of 33 degrees for the S30. The V20 has longer wheel base (possibly better high speed stability), no suspension (possibly lighter and stiffer so better on good roads), and seat angle of 20 degrees (possibly worse vision, definitely...

    There are lots of threads on tires. Here’s the most recent https://forum.cruzbike.com/threads/v2-tires.13512/ Looks like 28 yes, 30 yes for at least one combo and 32 has worked for at least one combo but then you better do all the research because at that level tolerances could be ok or not...

    V20 for sale

    ERTRO wheel size measurements use Bead Seat Diameter = inside diameter of the tire where it sits against the rim. Assuming same height of tire, the difference in seat height would be: 700c (Standard) road wheels = 622 mm bsd 650b wheels = 584 mm bsd Difference in diameter = 38 mm...

    My Very First Recumbent is a V20

    I am pretty sure that I would do worse than stare at a baby giraffe that shows up out of the nowhere in the middle of my neighbourhood riding a v20 and shrieking like a gaggle of teenage girls. (Not having been a teenage girl I can’t say what they shriek about only witness that it cuts...

    Early Christmas from Thor (seat & tailbox maker)

    It looks like the Thor seat has a fair amount more lumbar support than the stock seat. Maybe you won’t need any changes.

    Freerider steering broken

    It is an adjustable stem. You will either need to be a good measurer/searcher or go to your local bike store and take in the broken pieces for them to measure and order in one. Alternatively, I’m sure a custom metal fabricator or bike builder could make you a better than stock one.

    Maria Parker’s V20 for sale

    $3000 seems a bit high for what appears in good condition but stock ?2014? model. Comments indicate 4700 price tag but that is for a brand new current model. Significant changes have occurred. As one poster opined 2000 might be more appropriate. Boom seems pretty close in so probably a...

    New Q45 coming....

    Ah, that makes more sense. I missed the context and read it as applying universally. So, based on the limitations that our Cruzbikes have: fairly static weight distribution and front wheel drive resulting in unweighting of drive wheel and wheel slip and maneuverability on loose surfaces; and...
