    A sign of things to come?

    Through axle front and rear. 12mm. 100mm and 142mm spacing (note this is the same as the through axle S40's and Q45's)

    Urban ride among traffic

    Great video. Lots of traffic but friendly traffic. That makes all the difference.

    Just wondering...S40 with a carbon front triangle?

    All of the new parts are 100% incompatible with the old parts. Thats part of the process of going to an entirely new material - it has to all work properly together. To me this is a good thing. It allows the older bikes to stand as they are (the race winningest recumbent anyone can...

    We will see for sure in the future regarding a frame set. It isn't an impossibility - just not this go around. ☺️

    Kline, We have used the Chosen hubs for over 15 years and they are some of the best made for the prices. In all my years I have not seen or heard on a Chosen hub failure. They are smoother than most "expensive" brands out there (White Industry, CK IMHO) The Rims are really good as well. 32...

    Max tire size on 2021 S40

    In a 700c wheel a 38c tire should clear easily but might be a bit close to the crown depending on the tire. Plenty of clearance in the rear. If you go to a 650b wheel you can easily get over 40c.

    Learning my S-30

    I agree that clipping in makes riding much easier. The reason I don't recommend it "right away" for most people (on ANY recumbent 2-wheeler not just a Cruzbike) is that they tend to not understand clipping OUT safely. So adding yet another thing to learn proves too much for many. Watching...

    V20 brake rotor bolt interference

    This is exactly right. Sadly the clearance there is just too close given the design and weld. This won't be happening on the new ones.

    2022 Q45 email

    We are in a time of "flying by the seat of the pants" when it comes to shipping/spec/etc - but rest assured more Q45's are on the way very soon. I will be happy when the boat leaves and happier when it arrives and happiest when the container arrives at the warehouse. If anyone watched the 60...

    Poblem with Q45- Top steering post clamp slipping?

    Make sure you have three washers all on the outside of the clamp. Two on the sleeve side and one on the threaded bolt side.

    New S40 build

    Much worse than tricky - a real disaster. This will not change for a good 2-4 years IMO from all my discussions with many personal friends and contacts IN Taiwan and China in the manufacturing sector. The big guns are hoarding and ordering ALL the parts. Shipping prices are triple now - or...

    New S40 build

    Good assessment - though wee are also limited to what the component manufacturers are making and have available for us to get stock bikes assembled - especially right now in the new post-Covid manufacturing economy.

    READ: Chainstay Clamps PSA and PRO Tip

    Bumping this PSA - don't over tighten the clamps. Don't over tighten the clamps. Don't over tighten the clamps. Don't over tighten the clamps! These are very low supply and there is zero reason they should break if they are not overtightened. I have never broken one is many years of riding and...
