    A very nice S40 review...

    Agreed - Great video! - although he would have probably climbed a little better if he pushed his BB out an inch or 2. He knees were bent too much for my my taste and IMHO he gave up good power making ability because of that. (i.e His knee was bent too much for max power when crank at 10am...

    Hand position S40

    For hills, try and shift to an easier gear and keep your cadence as high as possible. They higher it is the less force are on the pedals - and therefore less pedal steer from the front end. I try and keep mine around 90-100 and it helps a lot. If you do slow down and cannot get it any faster...

    Suspension Adjustable Headrest Position?

    There is really no right or wrong way to mount it - it obviously has multiple ways it can be mounted - all valid- what you have looks to the best option, especially for you.

    The "My Feet Hurt" Thread

    If you modify the clip-ins to be mid-sole, then you should have the same experience as you did with the Catalyst pedals

    Looking to trade (plus a bit of cash) M5 CHR for V20C in white, black, maybe blue) I am in San Francisco/Sacramento areas.

    I am 5'7" and had an M5CHR - I had to move the BB way in and run 150mm cranks (which I like anyway). I also had a special seat made which had an integrated tailbox and it was set at 11 degrees. Even with all that is was still only just as fast as my V20 - And with all that, the crank overlap and...

    S40 going tubeless

    Tubeless ready rims have a special profile for the tubeless tires to seat into. It is unadvisable to mount tubeless or non-tubeless tires into non-tubeless rims. It may look like it works and it may work for a time. But when it fails the tire will detach from the rim and this is the most...

    Looking to trade (plus a bit of cash) M5 CHR for V20C in white, black, maybe blue) I am in San Francisco/Sacramento areas.

    A great deal for a RWD bent. I used to have one. so much harder for me to ride than the Vendetta - because of the chain & crank overlap with the front wheel. pretty much the same speed for me. So I got ride of it and get going on the Vendetta. That was 10 years ago or so.

    Comfort on S40?

    I agree - You will have less chance of recumbutt on an S40 since the angle is less - However, for those who still get it, I have found a little extra padding under the seat cushion also helps. As far as your neck goes - the S40 also has a neck rest which helps out. Please reach out to me at...

    Vendetta V2 frame sizes

    To the best of my knowledge the frame did not come in different sizes, only the chainstay length. I think 19" was the standard length and I think there was a shorter one and a really long one.

    Oh No !! Didn't See This Coming

    Ouch - Yes - it won't be long before the other side breaks due to the added stress. Welding aluminum is a fine art and the area is so small - I just don't know if I could trust it even if welded because the area around a weld usually is also compromised because of the heat. Might be time to...
