    What did you do to your Cruzbike today?

    I hate stopping too - It is such an "average speed" killer! ;)

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    Are you saying that I will be "grumpy", or just shorter when I am done?

    Clicking noise on my new V

    It was the front if I remember right, and now that my memory is coming back: It was not that there was actually a really loose spoke. It was just a spoke "rubbing/scrapping" against another. It was very odd. I truthfully cannot remember what I did to fix it. Maybe put a touch of grease between...

    easy testing of aerodynamic drag

    The demo was really cool. Biggest challenge would be to get a good representation of the Vendetta (with your body on it) into the program. Wow. I wonder if they have some tools for that. Maybe videos or pictures from many angles.

    easy testing of aerodynamic drag

    I feed my data in the new tool for my laps up in Chicago when I did my Century record attempt this past August: (I have added my speed and watts for each lap for comparators). This was the "prototype" Cruzbike rear end, with Kent Pol's seat at about 2% from horizontal And then again at my...

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    Hyperbole? Where? - Gotta try drastic measures ... or I could just put special bearings in my headset and go faster??

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    I'm going back on full Keto diet as of yesterday. I have been a "bad" boy since Sebring and put on about 15 pounds! :eek: Probably a combination eating too much and not riding as much. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: Goal is to loose 22 by Sebring and ride at 65Kg. Secondary goal is to get my FTP...

    Clicking noise on my new V

    My first Cruzbike - a used Silvio was clicking and clicking. I looked at about everything and tore everything down and put it all back together - still not change. Finally "BentAero" went riding with me and rode really close to the "noise". It ended up not being a clicking after all. It was a...

    2017 Cruzbike retreat in White Lake, NC

    Here is a video of when Jim, Kyle, Alvin and I tried to gang up on a 7.1 mile KOM around the lake. Jim knows the guy that has it and really wanted to break it. Jim, Kyle and I stayed together pretty good, but Alvin was having trouble staying close. It is hard to do on a recumbent compared to an...

    2017 Cruzbike retreat in White Lake, NC

    I have just returned home from this great time! 25 Cruzbike fanatics all in one place! haha It was so great to meet everyone and hear everyone's story, and to see us all riding down the road together. The location was fantastic - great pick Cruzbike! Here is a short video of everyone riding...

    Another new V owner

    It really depends on the length of your chainstay and your big ring top and bottom. I run 19" chainstay which is standard, and a 53x28 and I think I need 5 extra inches which is 10-links. I am actually just running a standard chain while my others are drying. I just cannot go big-big or it will...

    Red V20 Frameset (picking on Hal thread).

    I've done it 3 times in 3 years. Worked pretty good for me. One of these years I'll have a year without an injury - I hope!

    New Dates for Cruzbike Ride Retreat!

    Of course I will be there- I'm even thinking of bring the "Prototype Vendetta" I set the UMCA world record Century on with (3:48:10) and let people try and ride it! :) Great video opportunity! Warning - seat at 2% from horizontal! :eek:

    Riding other recumbents and a Cruzbike?

    Lee - wow 37 mph for an hour! That is quite impressive, especially on 55lb bike! So what is this bike that you "consider one of the fastest production bikes for flat rides."? Do you have you Strava ride to share? I would love to see it and the route your rode, your power, HR, etc. :)

    V20, ok for a short guy with short legs?

    As most people love to mention my "shortness" - (It has been vastly over-shortened by some to "gnome" stature), but in all truth - I am 5'7" on my "tall" days! haha - and the Vendetta with the basic chainstay is about as a perfect fit as you would want. You will be much more areo than those that...

    New Dates for Cruzbike Ride Retreat!

    Maria & Jim are doing the Grand Canyon run right now so they might not be available to answer right away. If you are not spending the night, then I do not think you will need to really sign up. Just come by. They usually will have all the models there for viewing and testing. We can set you up...

    2017 Texas Time Trial - live results!

    It is just after 5 am and I am waiting for my flight at the Asheville airport - to DFW. Kind of crazy that Jason will be done with his 500 before I even start my 12-hour! Here are the current standings after a little over 9 hours of riding. Looks like Jason has about 11 minutes lead on Damon...

    2017 Texas Time Trial - live results!

    Here is a link to what they call "live - tracking" - basically you get lap data, but it is better than nothing! http://www.edsresults.com/ttt2017/ As of this posting, Jason started about an hour and a half ago. He came through the start finish at 1:17.51 for the first 26.4 miles. That is...
