I'd say, if you don't need the money from selling it, and you have the space to store it, keep it for a year and see what happens. If it gets used, cool; worth keeping. If a year goes by and it doesn't move, then probably sell it.

Thank you for translating AI. :p

You have an older style of chainstay, with two bands that clamp around the bb cups. The outer shape of the bb cups needs to match the inner shape of the clamping bands. Since the bands are square, the bb cups need to be square as well so that the bands have a proper clamping surface. Wheels...

Mark is correct. Wheels Manufacturing bb cups are square, not tapered, and the 24/22mm bearing diameters are for SRAM GPX cranks. Shimano runs 24/24mm bearings. If it weren't for that slight difference, the two brands would be cross-compatible.

Nice looking ride! Looking at the photo, you are a candidate for the longer chainstay, which would put your bars a little lower. You are correct to point out that the lower bottom bracket that you have now does offer a bit more ease of use, at a slight price speedwise. If you think that you...

The person to contact is Robert Holler at Cruzbike. He would be able to tell you what is or isn't available parts-wise.

Coming in from left field here... Thirty-whatever years ago, before wheel-off smart trainers, computer apps, and Cruzbike, I relied on my music library by ripping 60-minute trainer CDs, with each song carrying a steady beat that led to a cadence ranging from 80 to 110 rpm. For the "slower"...

Well, there is one thing AI gets right as it tries to imitate humans... how to use a lot of words to say just about nothing. That this bot has confused the S40 with a car model gives me hope.

Excellent! I'll be interested to hear about your experience.

Eight years ago, my back could no longer take it on my diamond frame road bike. I switched to the V20 and that became my only road bike. I still rode upright for mtn. biking and an occasional gravel ride. My lower back pain completely went away because of the V, and I figured my days on a...

I have built many wheelsets over the years, both for myself and for friends, using Light Bicycle rims, and have had nothing but good experiences--ease of building, rim quality, and customer service.

Yes, the stock headrest rails for both the V20 and V20c are the same, including diameter.

This is the first of the V20 line, with the newer style boom/slider, and carbon fiber seatpan replacing an older, less adjustable boom/slider and heavier fiberglass seatpan of the Vendetta v.2. The bike did not change much--mostly paint and graphics schemes--until the V20c came out not that...

I do what @Beano does, except when I'm moving through tight and/or narrow turns I shift into an easy gear and use my still-clipped in foot to pedal full spins through the turn, rather than ratcheting the crank. It seems like both methods would work fine and is more a matter of preference.

Well done! That was my experience years ago with the V20. The first three-quarters of the learning curve seemed steep, long, slow, and filled with a lot of doubt. But the last part came quickly and my doubts vanished. I've always struggled with the concept of faith, but buying into and...

I am 5'4" and have had to cut a couple inches off of the slider of every Cruzbike I've owned, including my V20c. The only "issue" with doing so has to do with selling the bike down the road; you have to let prospective buyers know that your bike will best fit those in the shorter half of the...

Eight years ago I went from a DF road bike to a V20. It took me many short practice sessions at first. It was pretty repetitive, but with each round my brain wiring for riding this kind of bike came in a little bit more. With each next outing, the bike was a little easier to ride. After...

The older chainstay clamp presents two minor issues. One is that you are limited to flat-outer surface bottom bracket cups of a certain circumference to serve as the clamping surface for the chainstay. Such bb's are out there, but the selection is limited. Second, bb cups were never designed...

Yup, that's older clamp style, sure enough. When the burgundy V20 replaced the yellow v.2, it came with the more current boom/slider that was much more adjustable than the big silver/yellow setup. I ordered that boom/slider and a short chainstay for my yellow v.2, and the chainstay was of the...

Briefly back to chainstays... The V20 shipped with a 19.5in. "medium" chainstay." Again, at 5'5", with proportionately shorter legs, that chainstay put my feet too high up, and the handlebar too close to my lap. The handling was funky. I ordered the "short" 16.5in. stay, along with a curved...
