    "kweeky kweeky" rear noise

    Studded tires on dry pavement too! :p Ever ridden an inch of fresh snow. Just a ssssssss like cross country skiing. Awesome. If you try it on Cruzbike beware control is not nearly as good as a full on mountain bike. There was a reason they have been developed like that - Control at all...

    "Winter" - Cruzbike Virtual Time Trial Challenge

    I'm in. Tested my equipment today but when I uploaded it said only 21.4 km (13.3 mi) so not up to 15 mi. Oops.

    "Winter" - Cruzbike Virtual Time Trial Challenge

    Believable for you, Jason, would be inconceivable for me - without the 2% increase. That is, and believable for me - no one would believe that you would even beach cruise at my sustainable wattage. We're talking light bulbs wattage, hopefully closer to :emoji_bulb: than to :emoji_flashlight...

    "Winter" - Cruzbike Virtual Time Trial Challenge

    Sand bag stackers beware: ;)There are a fair number of at home analysts in the Tribe, most notable is possibly Larry Oz who is administering this friendly competition. :emoji_sheep:It would probably be pretty hard to pull the wool over the eyes. :emoji_dart:Not to mention the...

    S40 seat pad - Alone or with a Ventisit?

    I have used this (or as similar as to not be able to tell the difference from a picture) product to put under book ends to stop them from sliding on a shelf. It worked great. If you remove your seat often or if you are simply adding it on top of the seat pad then you may want to investigate...

    Speed vs power

    I wonder if hemisphere makes a difference summer vs winter. If I switch from Cruzbike commuting setup to my winter mountain bike with studded tires for winter commuting I'm sure that makes a big difference. Granted most people's summer vs. winter isn't quite so drastic as mine.;)

    TRP Hy Rd Rotor to thick

    I find that winter biking seems to always result in pad rubbing, the rear is always worse than the front. Here are my thoughts: 1. I ride in winter (Hamilton, Ontario, Canada = salt, slush, snow, wet) so lots of grime, grit, salt, etc. to get stuff to not move easily and to get grit in the...

    Silvio 2.0+ Split Elastomer

    @super slim I think it was you that had a post on how you changed your elastomer to a different suspension component. Would that include enough info to help @Always-Learnin do a simple elastomer replacement?

    Adjustable seat angle ideas

    I'm having a hard time following the diagram and description. Are you saying: 1. The front suspension goes from fully suspended to locked at completely compressed position? 2. the rear wheel is on a pivot below the seat and you change that pivot angle using the force from braking to unweight...
