    2022 Vendetta V20c with carbon fiber front end

    That is true - it only has one position - this makes it nice as you don't have to figit with getting it lined up correctly. Curved slider and longer chainstay - I suggest just emailing Cruzbike and ask them if it available. I think it might be available even if you don't see a part for it on the...

    Silvio 2.0 for sale in the UK

    Selling my Silvio 2.0 which I had from new having bought the frameset in 2014. The bike was professionally assembled by Geared Bikes in Chichester. I enjoyed learning to ride the MBB FWD platform and used the bike recreationally, but most of my riding now is commuting or utility trips (as well...

    V20 for Sale in Florida - SOLD

    Some additional information that may be helpful, based on questions I've gotten. There is only one size V20, that I know of. There are different length chainstays, and I think mine is a medium. It is 19" from skewer to crank. But the leg length is primarily accommodated by extending the boom...

    How about the long chainstay? And what length is it if you would sell it separately

    How to make your Vendetta as fast as possible

    Oh, nice, thanks, I will contact them. Interesting. Mine is, I'm pretty sure, the standard chain stay. Here's a photo, anyone with knowledge have any thoughts on whether the longer chain stay would improve matters? The little reading I've done it seems riders have issues with low speed control?

    How to make your Vendetta as fast as possible

    As Matthew said the proper chainstay length will probably make you a bit more aero. Do you know if your chainstays are the long or short ones? If they are the short ones you might be able to find someone who is willing to swap with you if the year model are compatible. The bike I bought is a...

    How to make your Vendetta as fast as possible

    ...too high and the knees throw turbulence above. Cruzbike’s wind tunnel tests revealed this. You could do some of your own CdA tests comparing different chainstay lengths. You’ll probably get the best with the bb height close to hip level. Shorter crank length may clean up aerodynamics as well.

    Chainstay Length..

    Al, I think the decision on chainstay length is based on finding the right balance of comfort, stability and aero. As Larry notes, the larger the size of the chainstay, the higher the bottom bracket will be. I've tried all three sizes, and settled on the middle one (I'm 6 feet tall). As...

    Chainstay Length..

    Primarily your leg length and also how far above the seat you feel comfortable having the BB. about 8" is a good value. Most people under 6' still use a medium chainstay because when you move the BB out, it lowers the BB. It is usually not too low and better than being higher. It is best to have...

    Chainstay Length..

    What considerations are most important in choosing which chainstay length to use?

    Handlebar configurations--S30, specifically

    Your chainstay looks to be about the right length, which is good. Do you happen to have the original Cruzbike seat pan and headrest? Some people really like the Thor-style seat, like what you have, partly because it offers more shoulder support, and brings the shoulders more upright, creating...

    Trade 2021 Q45 for 2019 or earlier

    Your Quest in the photo shows the chainstay as almost in a straight line - but that is only a happy accident of the boom adjustment. You would have little reason to do this, but imagine shortening the boom as much as it's possible to accomplish. In that case, the offset joints you note will...

    aerojacket cover on my Vendetta :)

    yep we are all physically different. Being smaller is an aero advantage. Edit but longer limbs have a mechanical advantage and the air is better up here. ;) the consensus seems to be knees at eye level no higher as you’ll see diminishing returns. chain stays I thought once came in five sizes...

    S30 Complete (late-model) for sale

    This is a pristine like new example of a late-model Cruzbike S30. It was originally purchased as a “Complete Bike” (rather than just a frameset), it’s virtually unused (less than 200 miles, maybe less than 100), and it has all original parts as built by Cruzbike. Here are the specs: Cruzbike...

    The G4 Bicycle , Potential MBB/Cruzbike Diversification Candidate?

    I was just thinking how similar G4 and Cruzbike are if we change the pedals and Cassette position. Pedals on the wheel, cassette at the BB. ofc things will change too 1. The bike will get longer 2. Change to fitting the bike now should be my moving the seat, so need to change the fixed seat...

    Triple Crank on S30? Help

    You could also contact CB for a replacement chainstay that will give you the current BB clamp. I went that route on my S30 because I use their short chainstay. They won't give you one for free, but it will take care of the clamp-BB interface issue. Or...hmmm...I still have the medium length...
