My opinion on the Ventiset is if you ride in a hot climate the Ventiset is great. If you don’t, I would stay with the seat pad that came with the bike. I find it to be comfortable but it does get sweatyin a hot climate. I use a Ventiset in Fl. For your headrest, any cushion can work. Some...

I use a Salsa Woodchipper bar 46 cm on my S30. I like it much better than the original bars. I also ride mainly using the drops and rest my hands on the drops. My other improvement was a curved slider. It really put my hands at a relaxed, comfortable height.

I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks for the tip. The last ride had 4 terrapins, 2 snakes and a host of birds. I try not to run over anything.

I just joined the Strava Club so I can watch what the crowd is achieving. I ride a S30 as a casual, touring rider. Just out having fun with a couple of friends looking at nature etc.

Looks great. What handlebar and headrest are you using?

Oh no. I am so sorry. I hope the scoundrels get caught.

I ordered a curved slider for my much loved Silvio S30. I believe the curved slider will improve my field of vision and lower my hands into the sweat spot. Right now, I have my handlebar bar curved downward to bring my hands lower. Come on mail truck bring the slider my way!!

Thanks. There are not many around. I have the S30 but dual suspension. I love it. I like the look of the S30 better that the S40.

So you want the last version of the S30 but add extra seat pad to the recline and change out the front triangle? The last S30s had no front suspension and a 28 degree recline, I believe.

So sorry for your accident. Best wishes that your ankle recovers quickly. Speedy repairs to your bike.

Wow, glad you are ok. It only takes a second to go down. I do think you will have less injuries on a bent over a df. Heal quickly.

I’ll take the seat if bropp doesn’t.

Hi, Gary. I am also interested. Any idea for shipping cost to Elizabethtown, Ky or Port Charlotte, Fl.?

Ok

I plan on being at the Redbud also on my Silvio S30. I’ll be riding beside an Encore and maybe a Corsa.

I have a 2014 version of the handlebar off my Silvio. I changed to a Salsa Woodchipper bar. I think the current one is a bit different. Yours for the price of shipping and 20$.

Thank you for the that tidbit. I really like my S30. I may just look for another S30. My long range plan is touring using an RV to motor around the US to cycle.

I love reading about your build. I ride the slightly older S30 version. I also have a Q559 which I do not love. I am debating selling the Q and buying another S. Your build helps me. I go between Ky and Fl and would prefer not to haul bikes back and forth. Was there a specific reason you did...

Well done

Always remember to really tighten the lock nuts on the front wheel [slaps own forehead] I’ll emphasize this comment. I was coming down a rails to trails road overpass and my front wheel jarred loose. I stopped ok and all was fine except my ego. I had to walk the bike (Q559) about a half mile to...
