I have a Q45 outfitted with the 24" wheels in Portland Oregon. 971-337-5685. That would do the trick for the fit. The main thing is being able to reach the ground at a stop.
Lucia has sent out the email, and we all hope to see you at the BRNW 2026 Oregon ride. It will be EPIC! Links below. This will one for the record book, folks. Train and be ready though... CLIMBS galore. But also - DOWNHILLS. Oh yes. This one will be very sweet.
NOTE: Registration opens on the...
Joe,
If you have everything a bit loose and install the through axle first, and then make sure the stay and all associated clamps are tight after - the stay should be very well aligned with the fork.
Aligning the slider/handlebars so your upper arms are aligned with your torso and rotating the bars for neutral wrists will improve the handling and turning ability a lot. Straight arms and "aero" are not really relevant unless you are racing and going well over 16mph all the time. Better to...
Yes you just have to be careful popping out the cup and I HIGHLY recommend using a headset press to do any headset installs. Sometimes a decent shop can loan/rent you a headset press.
I would say the S40 can hold its own against many regular riders on a ti-bike given the same fitness, etc. Not V20c fast but up there. It would be unfair to compare a very very good upright rider to an S40 - mostly as those pros and semi-pro try riders basically live on their road bikes and are...
Cool pictures and concepts - but all I see from a product management/manufacturing/maintenance view is pure complication and unnecessary elements and high weight - the exact opposite of what makes for a good bicycle (recumbent or otherwise.) Also - most of those front fork suspension ideas I...
Kind of depends on the rider. I think that measurement was done with Jim on the bike if I remember - he is tall, so more upper body closer to the rear, but also light in the legs compared to some of us hammock style guys... so YMMV I think.
The front wheel is doing a lot of heavy lifting on a Cruzbike - more than an upright or other RWD recumbent - laying down power, turning while doing so, and taking more weight. so a bit earlier wear would be expected. Like a FWD car tires.
