Hey everyone - we just wanted to post a note - if you are having technical issues with the forum or signup issues, we are working to solve those. Hopefully all the hiccups from our server change will be solved soon. Thanks for your patience. Robert

Congrats to everyone who was there and raced - even just doing it is a great accomplishment for sure! Thanks for the recaps.

"More gear range" Also = GIANT gaps between the gears. Ugh.

Not recommended and any gain will (in my opinion) be very minimal. However the potential change to the handling could be very large. Likely to get more speed out of a change of tires and pressures I think. If the knees at the top of the pedal stroke are going much higher than your shoulders...

Body paint. :)

Likely an issue with the website/host changes everyone. Lucia is out at the moment but stay tuned we are working on finding out what is going on. Robert

CF can work on DF frames and be light because they are dealing with short tubes and triangles. A CF recumbent Flex like noodles, unless triangulated. Can also set up bad harmonics depending on the design.

The S40 does pretty well on gravel. Of course climbing and descending are going to be are combination of maintaining grip on the road and rider skill - that goes for any recumbent bike not on a paved surface. This also depends on what constitutes the gravel surface - if it is very loose this is...

There will not likely be a CF recumbent from that weighs less than an aluminum one - and some steel ones can weigh less than either if they are made right. The CF ones that do exist flex like noodles. No thank you.

Well, looks like my power info doesn't make it to Strava. Nothing like two steps forward and 10 steps back. Time to go ride outside with ZERO tech attached to the bike. Ugh.

Cool. I was not even aware that you couldn't change worlds. Been off the Swift for a while doing neighborhood loops at a much more relaxed pace so this will actually get me into the groove again. I tend to ride at far too leisurely of a pace outside anyway and there are way too many...

Did it this AM on the volcano flat. What a PITA having to do the "world hack" etc etc. Is this 2002 with these internet hacks? Seems a simple thing to let users pick wherever they want to ride.... except I forgot we are dealing with the very large cycling community so there always seems to be...

A good steel frame will last forever and can be fixed and recycled. An aluminum frame has a lifespan even with moderate use as the material can only take so many cycles. A CF frame "is forever" only in that it lasts and lasts and lasts just like nuclear waste in a landfill.

This is indeed a great idea and one I have done for various bikes. :-)

Tim, Shoot me an email at support@cruzbike.com. If you can, please send me a few pics of your DR hanger, as the Silvios during that time were using varying hanger types and I would want to make sure you get the right one. Robert

I would echo Larry.

I am now aware of aftermarket skewers for mag-type trainers that have the same types of ends that the stock trainer skewers have. It is possible to just see the stock CB skewer and swap out the one end. A direct drive trainer of course works much better as the bike is supported by the fork and...

Jim, We should have a replacement for that. Send me an email at support@cruzbike.com

I have not heard about any stolen bikes or frames on my end.

Thats an actual S30. There was only one production run of that particular frame. You can tell due to the triangular shape of the hole in the back brace. All previous Silvios had circular holes.
