The 29th Michigan HPV Rally is May 18-19, 2013, at the Waterford Hills sports car racing track on the Oakland County Sportsmen's Club grounds in Clarkston, MI which is near Pontiac, MI - or about 30 miles from me. I'm planning to go and see what the Vendetta and I can do in the...

This blew me away. I rode my little short 13 mile loop around Kent Lake that includes about a mile of hill climbing with some stretches purportedly in excess of an 8% grade. A big chunk of this ride is along park MUPs so I decided to try and ride slow and concentrate on slow speed handling...

I was researching Bike Sebring info when I stumbled across this video that someone made doing one lap of the Sebring racetrack. To my surprise, at time mark 3:26, Jim Parker goes wizzing by on his Vendetta. Based on his rider number of 130, this was the 2011 Bike Sebring 12 hour race where...

I just ordered a Bacchetta Brain Box. Anybody have any recomendations for brand/model/size of water bladder/reservoir that will fit well inside this bag? Thanks, -Eric

I was chatting with Jim and John about possible delivery dates for my VHF (Vendetta HydroForm) with the thought of training to ride in the Feb 16, 2013 Bike Sebring 12 hour race. My most optimistic guesstimate of delivery timing would result in something less than 8 weeks to train. John...

I understand day turned into night down under yesterday. Is this John's way of announcing he has finally released the newest version of the Vendetta? Or was this just an unrelated random event of the cosmos? :-) -Eric

Any more details on setting up the new V with disc brakes? 51mm I.S. frame and fork mounting spacing? 44mm BCD rotor to hub mounting with 6 bolt pattern? What size disc rotors will fit the V front fork/chainstay configuration? E.g. Anything bigger than 160mm rotors? Will...

What are current Vendetta owners using for speed and cadence sensors? Especially Bluetooth Smart sensors? In looking at some of the forum and other photos it appears that a more-or-less one piece sensor like the Wahoo Fitness Wahoo Blue SC Speed and Cadence sensor won't work because the...

Anybody try any of the Seasucker bike rack models for their Cruzbike? http://www.seasucker.com/product-category/bike-racks/ I'm curious if these work and in particular would work with different Cruzbike models without jettisoning your bike off the car without warning... -Eric

Here is a challenge for you John, How about plans or kit for a cardboard Cruzbike frame for your conversion kit? It might be really popular if you could hit this same $9 price point! http://www.fastcodesign.com/1670753/this-9-cardboard-bike-can-support-riders-up-to-485lbs...

Hi John, Any chance of posting a Vendetta package photo layout like the one you did for the new Silvio? -Eric

Hi, Has anybody tried to use a Vendetta on rollers instead of a trainer? I'm partial to rollers and am curious if I would be able to use a Vendetta on them. Thanks, -Eric

What has changed from version 1 to version 2 on the Vendetta? Would be great to see updated hi-res pics on the bike pages (for all models)... -Eric

Anyone with a Cruzbike or conversion within 100 miles or so of SE Michigan? Wish I had known about Cruzbikes before Jim and Maria were up here in June for the National 24-Hour Challenge, I might have been able to check out both the bikes and team Parker :-) -Eric
