So we all have various posts of when we built our bike and when we upgrade components but it can be a bit messy to keep track of so I thought it might be nice to have one thread with up to date details of everyone's build details. You can then edit the post when you upgrade. I will start...

I am interested skinny tyre's up front factor. I am among those opting for wider tubeless tyres but this is saying I should run skinnier in the front but still fatter in the rear, anybody else in this camp looking at switching?

@RojoRacing you have another convert from Orange Seal to Truckerco. Their online store now ships to Australia at a reasonable rate, isit only just cheaper than Orange with shipping plus from what I hear should work better (not that I have had an issue with Orange). I also picked up some tape in...

You should be able to convert that rim to tubeless. You can buy a conversion kit that includes special tape and valves or as @RojoRacing suggested to me use gaffer tape (it may be slightly heavier but I have had no trouble since the switch from fancy silca tape). You will still need to buy...

Looking great. I am looking forward to getting my boys on a Cruzbike eventually (they are one at the moment it might be a while), who knows by that time Cruzbike may have child sizes and I can start them on a Cruzbike :p:cruzbike:

Now we just need GCN to follow Larry in their super bike vs series Super bike vs cruzbike I'd like to see that. Good work Larry. Keep that data coming

I definitely feel I qualify for the senior games at times :p:D Have I mentioned before I have twins :eek:

For a certain value of cold :D:p

So I decided to create a poll for a bit of fun. I finally have the opportunity to head out as the boys are in childcare and I am on holidays. It is winter here in Australia, which means it's not really cold for most of you but cold enough for me (13C with a maximum of 15C). I thought I would...

I didn't realise @RojoRacing and I were the same age. Unfortunately I am in a completely different class, that is father of twins :p. Really interesting read and congrats Jason on all the great work. Hopefully I will get in a ride or two in the school holidays. I am also hoping to get back to...

I found the Ventisit indispensable particularly for ventilation in the warmer climate but also more comfortable IIRC (it's been a while since I have used the stock padding). I do a lot of commuting which requires lots of scooting. This does lead to eventual holes in cheap shorts and some...

I almost feel inspired to create a video or other such web publication to properly display this fantastic promotion for Cruzbike and the V20. I am on holidays so could have the time and I do have access to Adobe Premier through school (I may have started and realised while I have some enough...

If you cut a hole in your seat and eat your beans your could possibly make a cruzbike into a jump jet (maybe a short jump) :D

You will have to switch to disc brakes. That said 28mm Schwalbe one pros are too close to my yellow frame for comfort so I run 25mm at 80psi. Feels great.

Larry what do you use that has no padding? I have discussed with eleven.cc / breathevelo.cc about special ordering their merino bibs sans chamois but at $200aud the twins say no. Also I am a little concerned the Ventisit pad will rip them to shreds just like they do my chinese nicks.

Where from Jon? Not that I have expendable income for the next 18 - 25 years but I like to dream :p:D

Should I put my requests in now. My list isn't that long really :p

I agree with @RojoRacing I damaged a DT Swiss alloy rim, the rim dented which definitely prohibited running tubeless, but also I didn't want to run it with a tube for too long either , hence the upgrade to carbon.

I have a older school, yellow, V2 although please do not take my strava as an indication of the Vendetta's performance There is also the cruzbike club

You know you are a Cruzbiker when you are constantly thinking of ways to make your bike more aero and or lighter, even though your only ride is one commute a week (there and back). (I still need to seal the bottom triangles and I have my own idea for a moosepack). You know you are a Cruzbiker...
