    Sensor(y) overload!

    I'm thinking it that was me; I would have been like; "this is not a UCI Certified rider's body, the two cancel each other out."

    Stock V20 bar available in different widths?

    Boom does look a smidge too long and when you can shorten it that will bring to boom lower in your lap. At 5'9" I had to cut mine a fair bit to be able to get it dialed in. That would be the next best step even though it's a pain to take apart and do.

    Haven't tried it; looks fun and cool; I do think the rear would have to hang from the Axel and not the back of the frame; that way the weight loading would be the same as on the road.

    New/Old Q559 rider

    First thing I do on at wheel that has those is remove it and put in the garbage. The second thing I do is make sure the lower limit and b-screws are set to prevent shifting into the spokes. The only reason for that plate is to protect people that don't know how to maintain a derailluer. Much...

    Headrest foam sources

    Demand for replacements is small; so inventory is tiny and variable; thus not on the web store. Email support@cruzbike.com and Robert will let you know if he has any on hand and the price.

    Q559

    Hasn't been an announcement but it does appear that the days for the internal gear hub Quest might be over.. If someone is seriously looking for one I have 2 in the garage that might be slated for replacement by Silvios. I'm guessing we will here something soon.

    Spoking around.

    Now this would be an interesting wheel to test on the back of a Vendetta. http://ffwdshop.com/FFWD%20Carbon%20Wheels/track/FIVE-T-Cer

    I have become adept at popping a wheel on the trainer to get my Vendetta back to "square" without stopping the session. Probably not the best thing for the headset but it works. So yeah that's a common problem.

    I've done the Garage (if you have one) just need a bug replant candle :( $50 for a TravelTrac ain't bad for a starting point.
