    My Journey Begins...

    I have finally learned that in order for me to successfully take off from a full stop, I must sit (lean) forward as I engage the pedals. This gets me going without any issues and I am able to get clipped in and leaned back very quickly now. It's taken a bit of time but this is working well for...

    Newbie searching for a Cruzbike

    As one who was experiencing severe neck and shoulder pain...and as one who had a ruptured disc at age 17 (I'm now 60), I can tell you that moving to a Silvio 2.0+ was the best thing I ever did. And, I might add that Robert Holler, from whom I purchased my bike...was a great dealer to work with. :-)

    What a difference... Wow! I seem to have gotten my Silvio adjusted almost perfectly! The last two days, I have experienced a level of relaxed riding that heretofore, I was unaware existed. I now have my handlebars out to the point that my arms are almost completely straight while in...

    I hate my driveway... So, I have now pulled an Artie Johnson twice trying to take off from my driveway...embarassing, and frustrating. In spite of that, I am having a blast... I am still "dialing" the bike in. I have been trying to get my arms straightened out more but when I get them...

    Bent in Shipping... So my problem was that the rear derailleur hanger was slightly bent during transport (I did notice an area on the side of the box that had some damage). LBS got her straightened out and now she seems to be shifting much better. I'm thinking that I may have a little bit...

    Great Ride Yesterday and Today! Start and stops are getting better... My front derailleur starting making noise...I tweaked but now it won't shift into the big chainring. I must have over adjusted the H set screw. I'm a newby. Did you notice my online name? I have a Bent Up Aero Bag...

    Wearing a Silvio... So, picture Monty Python characters riding their fake horses. Now picture yours truly trying to stop in from of my house. I slow down smoothly, hit the brakes a little too hard at the end, slide forward, go to stand up, and suddenly I'm wearing a Silvio...no really...
