That is a real bummer - first one I have seen like this. I have a gold/yellow frame for 5 years and have about 100,000 miles on it. I do have some paint flaking off due mostly to me sweating on it all those hours but have not noticed anything like what you have shown. I would send the picture...

Thanks Robert - great looking batch of wheels ! What is the optimal tire width?

I think everyone is different. If I am really going all out like a 100 mile record attempt - full power I do not have to pee at all. I am probably dehydrated to some extent. I have talked to guys that ride 24 hours and some say they only pee once. Wow!. But when I do a 12 hour or longer event I...

Robert - are they flat on both sides - do you have any pics to share?

Plus there is the fact that you are laying down and the rain falls on you entire body surface. I have never done well with rain gear as it makes me sweat so much I end up totally soaked under it anyway. Also - If you are going fast enough or the wind is blowing into you- there is also the...

I have the newer FLO full carbon tubeless ready wheel. I really love them. They also come thru-axel and have adampter for older skewer system - so best of both worlds - plus disc brake (spline)

I doubt if a full CF frame would be any lighter than the aluminum. I do not see anywhere to loose 3-4 lbs. Easier way to loose that kind of weight is for the rider to use it. :D

I am going to to the Natchez 444 on Sept 30. I would like to ride the first part of the course from Nashville at least 100 miles and to maybe Tupelo sometime prior to the event. I am looking for someone who would be able to help me. My plan would be to leave at the Northmost point on Natchez and...

It is, but Thor had some problems with workers and building orders. It is on the back bummer now unfortunately - but I am assured when they have time they will get me a prototype.

I just talked to the Natchez organizer. He confirmed my registration and said that the list that is showing up on the web-site is last years list - He will be publishing this year's list soon.

I have not - but I generally run 80-90 psi on my 25 tubeless - if I ever have a bunch I time it would a cool experiment to test different pressures, but my gut is telling me that it would not be very much difference until the pressure was lower than 50 - and you probably would not want to ride...

I just wanted to try something different. It is my gut feeling that 30-32mm tires will end up yielding a better and faster ride on relative rough roads and stuff like chip-seal. I did just recently ride this V20c prototype on an outdoor track with very smooth surface and was able to ride 25mph...

Well, I do that as soon as I get my windtunnel built!

Yeah - that might be worth about 0.01mph difference!

I don't think it really does too much - but it looks cool - and that is enough to use it! Kind of like Q-rings - haha

In preparation for another Century Record Attempt (Roebling Racetrack) I got my V20C all dresses up for speed. I have a test ride on the track tomorrow if it doesn't rain: rear covered disc frame under seat covered stock seat/headrest racecase 140mm cranks wing CF handlebars with internal...

Here is the forum link to my Century record report: https://forum.cruzbike.com/threads/larrys-century-world-record-attempt-of-june-12-2022.14653/

Better late than never ! haha Executive Summary: On June 12, 2022 at 5:40am I took off on my quest to become the oldest person to ride an unfaired bike 100 miles in under 4-hours. This was on an ordinary road in Savannah Ga with less than average surface quality. I was riding a Cruzbike...

Here is some of the testing I did 8 years ago when I got my first Cruzbike Silvio 2.0 and then my Vendetta 2.0. I tested both of them around a .3 mile velodrome. I used the exact same components on both bikes and did the testing only 3 days apart and the conditions were similar. The Silvio 2.0...

It's easy to train for: every other day ride 2 hours as hard as you can - in 10 weeks you'll smoke it! ;) So much easier than training for a Century! Haha Aug 27 - I'd love to join you guys - I'll see if I can work it in!
