    To V20c as a lifelong DF roadie

    Hey, really sorry to hear you can't ride road bikes again. I'm 62 and just about to reach a personal best... so don't get too concerned that you are over the hill. V20c is a great bike. It depends where your.weakness is in your back. If you have neck issues... you might want to swap out the...

    My Very First Recumbent is a V20

    Apple Mini ipad probably fits better than anything else

    V20C - Prototype

    I think the stiffness will give it some greater potential for sure... my hunch is that you will have over a 3 watt advantage

    V20C - Prototype

    I am not so sure. If it was pink then they could call it lady penelope. Then the name Parker would give it even more meaning.

    Electronic Shifting and Replacing Brifters on the v20

    Emmm mix and match... xshifter can adjust your derailleur to even use 14 gears given the chance, without a network of cables or brifters.

    Electronic Shifting and Replacing Brifters on the v20

    I got rid of the Brifters and the FD. I use a x-shifter that I had to wait absolutely years for off kickstarter.... if you can source an xshifter ... try and get a spare battery... its worth having one to put in your pocket on a ride as it freezes in an impossible gear when running out of power.

    Sram cassettes - value for money

    Nope... not an option. I think the sram flat top chain is superior in strength and in aerodynamics. To get that 50kph everything goes

    New Adjustable Carbon Fiber Seat and Headrest for the Cruzbike V and S series

    I wonder if I could buy the v20c frameset without the seat for €500 less? Then just use the carbon seat from the V20. It looks as though it's the right shape.

    V20c for sale <sigh> - SOLD

    Why not keep it and put it on a trainer? Does your doctor fear that you will fall off it or is it just the tension you have on that sensitive part of your back? If it wasn't for the vendetta I would have a pot belly and my knees would be sore all the time. With the extra weight I would be...

    Help me decide: s40 or v20

    Good... but it a little forgiving go for the 650b with big tyres and a thor seat. If you want it for speed and being super cool stay with stock. I have a disc brake up front and a rear rim brake which works very well

    Help me decide: s40 or v20

    I have a v20... it eats roads for not many watts... I am 60+ and prefer to spin and prefer less drag so it doesnt kill my knees. If you do trails... try the s40... with disc brakes you can get 650b wheels with big tyres that give you better suspension. My V flies but is a bone shaker on rough ground

    Sram cassettes - value for money

    Well Hi Tribe, To spin well, or not to spin well that is the question? Do you think it helps to spend $300 on a cassette if it makes you break all your PBs? I have a 12 speed shimano cassette and it works until I want to push more than 300 watts on t11,t12,t13 and t14 sprockets. I get chain...

    A second V20c build and ride impressions

    You put the zip tie on the non drive side... However , I find if you slip the chain off the chainring then there is hardly any tension to pull the hanger out so I don't bother.
