Haha, drafting not allowed on TT! I would be disqualified!

Just incase no one else had already posted: http://www.recumbents.com/wisil/misc/crank_angle.asp

Took part in the Nairobi Southern Bypass ITT Oct 2020 on the Cruzbike S40. My Cadence was a little too high. May need to reconsider the gearing. Not the best performance but fun all the same. Here is a short video clip shot by my friends from a car. Enjoy.

I had this problem on my homemade bike and I see the likelihood of the same problem on my S40. The shifter cable is vertical on the right arm of the fork and the exposed section allows water to adhere and make its way into the lower part of the cable and likely get trapped there. After some...

Thanks Billy!

Yes it does. But if you ride often, it disappears as the body adapts and develops the necessary muscles.

Very true. It's scary but we learn to live with it, otherwise we would never ride.

Thanks Robert! I'am honored. The bike is great. It's very well balanced. Clearly a lot of thought went into the design. No bike is 100% perfect and neither is this one but we adapt and work with it. Soon we smile with joy at the pleasure of curving those smooth, winding roads at 40Kph! People...

Thanks @DocS !

I short video about this wonderful gift:

Yay! I saw his video blog showing the background scenes of the video shoot by GCN . Happy for him!

Thank you everyone! I have no other words to expresss my gratitude! Oh and by the way today I got my first KOM on an S40! Not by a big margin, but Iam happy with it! I must admit that on my first three rides I disliked the shorter 165mm cranks. They made me spin like a hamster but with no...

Thank you very much! By God's grace I shall take good care of it and ride it for a long time.

Hahaha! One downside to such a sleek bike is the fear of getting any blemish on it! I was a little rough on my homemade one. I shall record a ride video soon.

Thank you cruzbike tribe! The bike is finally here! Your generosity is truly amazing. I may never know who the anonymous forum members are that contributed, but I'am deeply grateful and may you be richly blessed in return. A special thanks to @billyk for going the extra mile to get the bike...

:emoji_100: % agreed! Single oversized and stiff telescoping tube from BB to handlebar. Minimal joints. Can't get better than that! It's in line with pedalling forces. The only thing worth improving is the pivot point where the front chainstay meets the fork dropouts and derailuer hanger. It...

Yeah, you never know! I once came across on some website this: Well , I hope the new Q is similar but with underseat rack bosses and that S40 frontend :) :D

Beautiful bike! Curious, what Cassette (or cassette mod?) is that?

Thanks. Sorry for the scare! It was a fast foward/hyperlapse. In reality, the vehicles were actually moving slowly at about 20Kph or less

Another day , another ride under the beautiful African sun.
