You can cut some length off of the slider tube - the smaller tube that goes inside the boom. Please make sure to only cut off the amount that you need to make the adjustment off the slider (never cut the larger outside boom) - keep as much overlap as you can to maintain the stiffness of the...

EXCELLENT!!!!!

What a GREAT write up and I am SO glad the S30 performed well! Looking at that route map - it seems as evil as the 2014 Cycle Oregon route - YIKES! When you are in Portland again don't forget to stop by and say hello again. :-) Robert

I am so glad you all are on here helping. That looks like a good position on that Q ring to me as well. Robert

This rack is specifically designed to fit the Q, there would not be a realistic way to attach it to another model. The S30 and V20 are really better off without racks as they would extend so far past the rear axle. The Underseat Scarab Bag is the best carrying solution for the S30 that we have...

OK - for all of the Quest owners - the ultimate commuter and touring rack is available now. A real rack has finally arrived and it is awesome. If you have lamented the limitations of the stock rack this is the answer to all of your needs. http://cruzbike.com/q-touring-and-commuting-rack This...

Ratz, It does look like a laptop of those dimensions will fit, but it would be a tight one I think. Robert

Bruce, we thought about doing that, but decided against it in order to save weight and make for a bag that when off the bike is nice and collapsible. The Vendetta version bags are here in hand. The Silvio version is fresh off the line today - so they are ready. Robert

Alan, The V20 version will indeed work on the old Vendetta. Robert

Ratz, We will try some different laptops. I imagine a 13" for sure but we will see what we can get in there.

MrSteve, It is indeed the logical place to carry gear. For the stuff you need on a day ride or commute this bag works very very well. Robert

OK everyone - introducing a new lightweight cargo option for the Vendetta AND Silvio! This bag has been in the works now for about a year. It has gone through several evolutions and it is ready for the market! We finally have a small run of each bag for sale here...

The 4000's are like riding on ice hoops on an ice rink. Ugh. I honestly do not know why people like those tires. The Panaracers are very grippy - maybe a bit "slower" than the contis but I never worry about washing out. I will have to try the ONE's - have not tried those myself.

The newer iterations of the Silvio that have the front clamps around the BB shell can not take a Schlumph - it is physically not possible. It would also add weight to the front MBB which would not improve the handling at all. The new S30 fork is 132.5 spacing so technically hubs can fit, but...

This is a great thread and definitely technique and practice are the order of the day. The effects for me became much more subtle over time and now I barely notice the inputs anymore unless on a sudden sprint.

Jim has hit all the nails on the heads here in this thread. I will also add that these things develop with time and are skills that one has to put the time in to master. That is not to say they are difficult - they just need to be mastered. Particularly the V20 and also the S30 - these bikes...

Another great bar and my new personal favorite is the Salsa Woodchipper. I cut 1.5" off the ends and it is a sweet bar. Nice flat sections to load on the power, and it positions the hoods straight ahead and not sideways in the wind. Riding the hoods is easy. Personally do not like the bullhorn...

With your X-seam a Large will put the handlebars right in your lap without a stem extension. You would want a medium. However, there are no longer any mediums in stock until the next batch of V20's are ready.

Out riding... :-)
