    Desperate Help for Fit Issues

    Nice! I just finished a fit video for the V20C that talks about this type of alignment - not related to the foot issue but more in discussion of the tiller length. It will be on the Cruzbike YouTube channel probably in a few weeks.

    Seeking advice for new V20c rider

    Its actually the Centos (correct me if I am wrong on your particular one - "Covid Spec" has meant a lot of last minute changes here and there on the last few bike batches) - but if thats the case: https://www.microshift.com/models/rd-r58s/ Max says 30T... I would say you can likely squeeze it...

    CRUZBIKE Sigma

    The "?" on the back says everything and it is my favorite part of the Sigma. Congrats on the build. I have built 2 of them from the same state I sent yours. You can now claim to have passed the assembly gauntlet/ninja challenge.

    Pro Tip - Just Say NO - Tannus "Tires"

    Please... I am begging everyone... just say NO to these ridiculous "solid" tires. "Tannus" or whatever... they are NOT good and also not safe. John Boyd Dunlop invented the first air bike tire in 1887 to save his son from headaches he had while riding his bike on - SOLID tires. His son also...

    "raising the bar" on V20c

    The CF parts only fit one way and are not reversible or rotatable (by design)

    Seeking advice for new V20c rider

    The V20 is the easiest of the bikes to "Fred Flintstone" around on, because the seat angle is so reclined you can sit nearly upright halfway up the seat. Do that and just lift your legs a bit off the ground and get a feel for now the bike rolls around and get used it. After a while do this and...

    Cruzbike weights

    Weights can vary- and for recumbents the total weight is rarely the be all of performance. I would argue that the lightest recumbents are some of the worst, as they are also the most flimsy, especially for a heavier rider or even average weight riders. Also I can climb faster on my S40 than...

    This question is blasphemous - V20 Seat Angle

    This is definitely always our design goal, within realistic parameters where we can still offer basically "one bike to run them all." I believe we have been successful in doing that with the adjustable (TM) front end - which is adjustable where is counts (fit arena) but not as "adjustable" in...

    CRUZBIKE Sigma

    The Sigma was a special build he did for a friend of his but I am not sure of all the exact history. Indeed it does not add to the brand (or to recumbents as far as moving them forward in a positive direction). It was and is not a good bike. As a museum piece of "what not to do" it is a great...

    Brand New - Cruzbike S30 - $3,200 -sold

    Thats a unicorn for sure. 100 of those made - and that is it - and will be it for all time. I rode a 500 mile Cycle Oregon on the S30 #1 back in 2016.

    Square taper bottom bracket on Q45?

    Indeed - As RATZ says - any BB that is 68MM ET will work. Depending on the axle length of the square taper will determine your chainlink, so be aware that not all square tapers are the same and the Cruzbike has more going on that can interfere with crank spiders, etc...

    V2 headset play

    In the Vendetta (and older Silvios) the race is integral to the headset itself - there are no "cups" pressed in - so there is nothing that can be replaced there. While this is cool from a minimalist perspective I prefer old school cups that can be replaced and/or upgraded as things evolve (hence...
