Hi @Tor Hovland , here are the photos. I am thinking about getting the medium sized chainstay as i have a large , which is too horizontal for me with hills. I think the optimum is something in between. The cranks are 155mm. I'm a bit adventurous with the brake cables but I check for fraying...

I remember trying those nostril openers and thought it would be a good try on a recumbent... not. Good way of swallowing insects very quickly. Full face faring is the only way. Something like a welders eye protector would be good

Sorry Tor, I've been out for a month. I get my hands on the V next week. Photos Monday

I use an x-shifter with a 12 gear configuration and got rid of the brifters and front deuralleur. If you go for this try to buy an extra battery as its pretty useful on a long ride

Go 12 speed... lose the brifters... get some aerobars and attach brake levers. Try to go electronic with blip switches for gear up and gear down and you will be so fast and light.

A v20 with a thor seat can be adapted to be at 30 degrees ... I remember seeing a post somewhere on this site

If your crank is small, no extra performance at all. I prefer to spin as to mash. And I suspect I've hurt someone's feelings about that. But better not to hurt the knees

I decided to go 12 speed with a 1x48t up front and a sram force 10/33 cassette. It gets me up the 5% and is ideal to flat and downhills without knee ache at the end of the day. I lose 2kilos as I don't use brifters or di2 or a front derailleur however the engine needs a work over before I can...

I couldn't say but technically it can have the thicker tyres and the axle thru bolts gives the v20c strength. I expect over the next couple of years more and more records will be broken. However, I got emotional over my v20. We have had a lot of experiences together. I don't think we will be parting

If you had a front boom saddle bag it would work as an aero fender but you wouldn't want it too bulge

It's amazing how they hold their price. Mine still has PB's but I won't know if its a better bike unless I get a new v20c . LOL Is the V20C really that good ?

It's a speedfil F1 hydration unit. There was a post in one of the forum's with another rider who had a disc brake adaptor linked to this hydration unit, but I prefered to run it on the back of the seat. The way I mounted it was rubbish. It basically needs someone to produce a 3d adaptor so that...

Not sure. I will have to have a rummage

I would change steel to Alu and then you have a play with allure and aluminium ... then it would be perfect

Mummamia.... I think you will have to start building the extension

Gosh... almost thinking it would be best for 2 bikes on such a challenging randoneer.

I have some sram rival cranks that I got cut down to 155 from 172. I haven't had a problem with them.

Nice Park, plenty of good clean air there

I'm going to chime in, LOL. You probably won't like what I am going to say but it's cheaper to renew the chain every year than to replace other parts more frequently.

My discussion with Mr AI.... impressive i have had a problem with my front wheel on my bike... the carbon rim hit a pothole too hard and cracked the rim , i am probably going to use epoxy glue to repair the crack. I'm sorry to hear about the issue with your bike's front wheel. While epoxy...
