Bruce, Sounds like a nice build, right up my alley! The key to launching straight is to counter with your off arm. In other words, if you launch with your right leg, you need to counter with your left arm. It's like a dance and it gets to be second nature straight away. The fun has just...

Looks great, Jack!!! Mark

I think the seat height would be too high on that bike. Mark

Bananabike, Welcome to the forum! On a Silvio, the CF stays are thin on the profile, but they are very wide and strong. You'll spin the wheel, or outmuscle your opposing arm before you flex the front end of a Silvio. Good question, though. I pondered the same thing before I pulled the...

I am in agreement. Mark

OUCH!!!! Glad you're OK, Harold! That's two Silvio crashes recently. I sure don't want to be the third!! Mark

I always thought an airnimal would make a good conversion. As far as the fork goes, remember, it's not the fork that holds the wheel on a conversion. The adaptor plates are what makes a front fork work for a rear wheel. Mark

Wow... Those are some attractive prices! Mark

You'll need all the shims, one way, or the other. You can stack them in any order you like, above or below the TFT clamp, but you have to have clearance for the cables to pass over the headtube and down through the cable guides. Also, you will have to do the complete front end build, install...

Mine isn't particularly light at 27 pounds, but she flies! Mark

That's pretty cool... Looks kind of like a Tom Traylor bike. Mark

You can have any color you want as long as it's black! Mark

Too high of top tube for the seat pan. Mark

There is a technique, it involves pulling yourself forward by the handlebar. Same thing for sprinting. Mark

They come up now and again... Watch e-bay, too. Good luck! Mark (kinda old guy)

Just shows to go ya'...... Just how dependent we are on these stupid computers! Sometimes, I seriously wonder how I ever got along without it. I know people that are not connected and I often wonder how they survive! ;) Mark

The seat pan will be too high, methinks. Mark

Nice job!! Mark
