Awesome. It is always a bit shocking to me to watch people just barely get it and then immediately start trying to get into the high 20 - 30 mph range before really learning how the bike handles.

Awesome! Ease into it. In my experience the hardest time for new people (and it was for me) is that in-between time when you think you have mastered it. Don't get in over your head. When at speed and coasting, understand what gear you need to be in and ease into the power to start pedaling...

The Spyers will be a tight fit depending on the hub of your wheel. If the hub flange is a tall one the caliper will have a hard time clearing the spokes in the rear. The hybrid TRP brakes are a good fit and work well once they are set correctly and broken in. I would go for 140mm front and...

Very nice. The original "clamp" design was something I was never a fan of personally. Robert

Is that a click-stand on your chainstay?

Dr. Paul - Send me an email to support@cruzbike.com and I can look at a better shipping option. That sounds like a miscalculation by the web store to me. Robert

The wings are also not designed to hold weight in and by themselves, so hopefully anyone doing this has the majority part of the seat still resting along the frame - as that is part of the design purpose of the rigid seat.

Bob, I agree with a lot of your post, but in our experience we see a lot of people (roadies and recumbents together so no one group in particular) doing improper installation of these systems on very budget rims that sometimes are not even true to begin with, resulting in failure. The more...

The welds on the chainstay bb clamps will indeed hit some spiders - depending on the thickness of that area of the crank.

Depending on the cage there is actually a space that allows for the use of a nylock nut there and there will not be interference with the bottle.

Sigh.... clinchers all the way please - especially on our bikes. I do NOT recommend anything but a good clincher rim on our bikes. Plus this has been tested and tested and tested and clinchers are actually faster anyway.

Dave, It takes a bit of pressure but yes you can just at an angle leverage out the stalk. That way you can pop it right onto the mount for the bar. Just be careful not to break the glass. Robert

The offset of the crank to the tube would be the same if the same cranks were on an upright bike. It is the same on the Q series as well (also the same on an upright)

Hmmm - let me look into that. Mounting straight to the brace is still good, but we have seen some lights that have clearance issues in there. Options are awesome! :-)

Awesome!

Cliff - Indeed it will. Robert

The sliders/front ends are not available separately for the V or the S. These items have been designed specifically to work with the geometry of their respective bikes. Modifying the QX100 to fit a setup like the V or S is basically modding it to be more like the geometry of the older 45 degree...

Elliot, Yes, the 30mm spindle cranks have much larger BB shells and they do not fit inside the ring clamps. Robert

http://www.bikeradar.com/us/road/gear/article/tubs-vs-clinchers-which-are-faster-45671/ Ill save you the 9 minutes: Clinchers are faster. Sorry. They are also less of a hassle BY FAR. Ugh.

In addition to the stock tab, check out our new chainstay light mount: http://cruzbike.com/light-mount This thing is super sturdy, looks trick, and adds another place to mount a light to your V. Robert
