    Rack solution for the Silvio 2.1

    It looks like it interferes It looks like it interferes with the suspension. As the suspension flexes, something l will eventually give. It should either be exclusively linked to the rear seat stay or the main frame i.e (seat back, and/or neck rest) but not both.

    Mobius ActionCam on a Cruzbike Silvio 2

    Wow! Great video and great Silvio handling! Great video Ivan! That maneuver at 0:27 is brave to say the least! However a mounted camera can make it look more scary than it really is because it doesn't give the almost full 360 degree view that the rider actually has considering the Zefal...

    Bullhorn and Dropbar Options

    Unlike the Pinarello, Silvio's handlebar doesn't support weight Whatever the case, the main advantage that the cruzbike has over the Pinarello is that the handlebar does not support the rider's weight during the ride. So in the unfortunate event that the handle bar fails, the feet will still...

    Fast Uphill Fun

    I believe a carbon framed I believe a carbon framed Vendetta or Silvio 2.0 would be lovely, but the cost of production may be so high that only a select few will afford it. It probably may be easier to do it in parts like what the Silvio is currently. Start with the seat and chain stays...

    Silvio 2.1 Arrived!

    Very Sleek Silvio 2.1 Your new Silvio looks sleek and expensive! I've read in forums that mixing a RWD recumbent and a MBB FWD during the learning stage is not very good. Maybe you should ride the Silvio exclusively until your are fully comfortable with it. However riding an upright does not...

    Rode a metric century

    @Jim, thanks. There was no @Jim, thanks. There was no soreness on my neck or back. However, my knees were O.K until I started climbing the most difficult section. It was a long and sustained 20 Km section averaging 3% and peaking at 7%. They were burning! My biceps and the inner thigh...

    Silvio decal got updated

    Decals look best when Decals look best when displayed in the context of a complete bike. I believe these will really show their true colors once we see a complete build.
