    Sucess

    Good idea Jack. I cut 1 inch off my seat struts to turn my T50 into a T45. Much more comfortable!

    A momentous weekend

    Ah yes, Sugarloaf Mountain. I've climbed it many times but that was before I got into Cruzbikes. I was a member of the Florida Freewheelers when I lived in Orlando and Sugarloaf was the featured climb on our annual Horrible Hundred ride.

    My T50 town bike

    Not only does my T50 serve as a shopping & errand bike with it's ability to accept 2 large panniers I also can mount our pet carrier and take our dog Fredo on rides. He enjoys running along the trails as I Cruz along at Willamette Park's leash free area.

    Play in headset on T50 - how to adjust?

    Thanks for the tip Doug. I didn't realize that part was actually a headset tension adjuster. There are no instructions anywhere on how it works.

    My T50 town bike

    I recently acquired a T50 frame to replace my old Freerider. While the Freerider was a fun bike to ride once it got moving it was getting this hefty bike moving that was a problem. Starting on even the slightest incline was a strain on my legs but I figured that the T50, lacking the extra weight...

    Kit Needed...I know, the impossible dream!

    Someone called about the kit but got Daniel, the weekend manager who didn't know about what I posted here. I was in the shop yesterday and spoke to Daniel. The kit is still available. Come by and check it out during shop hours.

    Kit Needed...I know, the impossible dream!

    We checked over the CB kit and I was wrong about it being new. It had been mounted once but is in good shape although missing 2 pieces. Comparing it to an old parts list for the kit we see it is missing the axle to adapt the front wheel to the rear of the donor bike. It also seems to be missing...

    Kit Needed...I know, the impossible dream!

    I volunteer at our town's bicycle collective and we have a CB conversion kit for sale, never used and still in a box. We usually don't advertise or do any shipping but we might make an exception for this kit. I'll have to talk to the shop manager to see what we can do.

    Helmets with visors

    I think most helmets are made in China and I doubt that if they were made anywhere else they would necessarily be better quality. http://forums.roadbikereview.com/general-cycling-discussion/where-your-giro-aeon-helmet-made-china-taiwan-317731.html

    Helmets with visors

    This $40 helmet with visor works well for me. https://www.amazon.com/Basecamp-Specialized-Detachable-Magnetic-Sunglasses/dp/B0746GRMPD/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1512581748&sr=8-2-spons&keywords=basecamp+helmet&psc=1

    Helmet for Casual, Everyday Riding: Yes or No?

    I have a Base Camp helmet purchased from Amazon. It offers the same tinted eye shield as the Giro Air Attack but at 1/4 the price. It works well for me and the tinted shield is perfect for the reclined position on the Vendetta. If it clouds up outside I can easily flip the shield around with one...

    Another Cruzbiker in the Willamette valley

    The bottom bit of text and photo is from a FaceBook post I made 2 weeks ago. I had made contact with Ivan through this forum and met him at a local club's benefit ride in Salem back in April. For that ride he choose to ride his Eliptigo rather than his Vendetta. He contacted me recently...
