I bought a Rohloff for my I bought a Rohloff for my S2.0, and had it made into a wheel. I then found that it does not fit. You have to pull the forks apart. The hub goes in, but the drop-outs are not parallel to the flat ends of the hub. When the quick-release is tightened the drop-outs are...

Traffic?  Ivan should try Traffic? Ivan should try Gallows Corner in the bad-lands between London and Essex. I thought I had a high cadence. Are Ivan's legs going round really fast or are mine going round really slow?

If you mean what I think you If you mean what I think you mean, the metal plate is not under the seat, it is the seat. I had a conversion-kit which I stopped using when I got the Silvio, so I de-converted the donor. The Silvio has the bum-half of the conversion-kit seat. I kept feeling as if...

I have the Raceblade Longs, I have the Raceblade Longs, and am in the process of fitting them. The metal joining-pieces are on. Yes, there is a lot of metal on the fork crown. I filed it. The metal piece is quite narrow, so I filed a groove and did not touch the welds. I wanted to keep the...

The handlebars are already The handlebars are already close to my chest. This would make them even closer. How do you get on and off the bike? What you want is a lever to lift and lower the seat while you are riding.

This is the brag board, and This is the brag board, and this bike is something about which to brag indeed.

I have ordered raceblade I have ordered raceblade long. If they do not fit I will try 25mm tyres. I also like the two continuous fenders idea.

I have a Silvio 2.0 with 28mm tyres. I want mudguards but the clearance under the front fork is tiny, like the width of a human hair. I have Mavic A119 wheels, and Mavic says 28mm is the minimum. What would happen if I put smaller tyres on? Would 23mm be dangerous? Would I get enough...

Is the MC2, in speed mode, a Is the MC2, in speed mode, a belly-bike? Pinion is squarely aimed at Rohloff's market share. On a diamond-frame, Pinion is better weight dist, but on a Cruzbike, is Forkflop City.

I fitted the Xx1 driver body. I fitted the Xx1 driver body. Works well. The steering seems slightly more stable. Maybe because the front is lighter. I think I am faster, but I have yet to get a new speedo. I spun out on the steepest descent, and I have the biggest chainring Sram make...

It seems to improve the It seems to improve the handling. Don't know why. Also more speed, I think, but my speedo broke yesterday.

Sideways Cycles says the Sideways Cycles says the XX1 driver body is on its way. I was starting to find that the seat felt a bit weird. I had a conversion but I un-converted it, so I put the bum-half of the conversion seat on the Silvio. I was sliding forwards, but that is solved...

This happened to me.  It This happened to me. It rained on me. Hardest rain I have ever seen. I looked as if I had fallen in it. I did the slide and glide and a bucketful poured out. I was lucky it missed my legs. I was surprised the rear light was still working. I thought it got in...

New freewheel derailleur and New freewheel derailleur and I adjusted the chainwheel one. I have to wait another month to get the XX1 fitted on, but I am riding it more. I have been using it to go to the shops. Hard to carry stuff. I am going to have to look at the bag-related threads on...
