Doug I tried the fitting under the bolt both ways and I still could not get the top of the cage any closer.It would be nice to be able to adjust the cage angle. Jack

Got them on ok after all. First try the front of the chainring was way too high. Spent a couple of hours today and got the derailleur to work. Ended up bending the back of the derailleur down and grinding the back part of the cage.The angle is still not quite right but it does work. A good bike...

Great deal someone better grab this one fast. Jack

Go for it im using a 14.5in frame and its just right.With the Cruzbike its much better to have a smaller frame. Jack

what part of San Diego? I ride the South Bay bike path a lot. My Giant conversion might fit. Jack

I have done 65 miles the legs got a little sore but I'm no kid.Just keep riding it and you will be surprised how hard you can push a Silvio. Jack

Update on these cranks. Im spinning up hills now with no knee pain. I can now feel the difference between the 175 and 155 crank length.Cranks are on the Giant and that bike is working out just fine even on some really bad roads. Jack

No has Anybody got one yet?

Got triple to work again had a 5603 at first it worked ok then had a lot of chainring drag. Just got a 5503 and now it works again. Jack

That way you could keep the seat way back in the frame.I think you get a lot better ride with a lot of recline so wont miss the suspension that much. Jack

Cant wait to see how this one rides.I posted about that frame last year and no one was intrested in doing a hardtail.

Looks good Mark

Had 175s on cant really tell any difference. I will see how they feel om a longer ride. Jack

Got a ride today with the cranks and they are nice. I have a 11-32 and they climb ok with a 11-34 would be even better. They are ramped and pined so shift very good. I ended up using the rear wheel from the Cannondale as the the wheel I had on the Giant not only had cracked races but broken...

My crankset came in today they use a square bottom bracket and went on easy.Got everything adjusted. Found out I have 2 cracked cones on the back wheel so have to fix that first. Jack

This is how I mounted the seat.Finally weighed the bike its 36lbs and thats with the old steel kit.Put the spedo on and found I can hold 17-18 easy. Jack

I ordered one and will give a report soon. I hope. Jack

Thats pretty good Moose.How many miles do you ride a week?

I use Eggbeaters and mtn bike shoes easy in and out. I tried road shoes and had some slippage problems but thats just me. Jack

I need one e mail sent. Jack
