The component manufacturers The component manufacturers are constantly changing the specs for this sort of thing and really there is no reason for them to be a certain size or shape for anyone else. Even the new FSA EVO line requires a special tool, which as a shop already stocked with BB tools...

It sounds like you are making It sounds like you are making progress! Wait until you have 500+ miles under your belt. Oh wow it only gets better (and faster) Robert

All, Yes - the Sofrider is no All, Yes - the Sofrider is no longer in stock, and it will not likely return to the lineup. There are a few available but they are not technically "new" bikes anymore and thus cannot be sent in the original packaging. I will be at the Seattle Bike Expo at...

All good questions and this All good questions and this concept will be evolving rapidly here. Stay tuned! :-) Robert

Fear not Cruzbike community - Fear not Cruzbike community - there will be be great things in the future for the existing bikes as well as for the evolution of our bikes. The direction is forward - that has always been the case with Cruzbike and most certainly still will continue to be...

Sandy, Don't give it up just Sandy, Don't give it up just yet - you really have to put in the miles and the balance and stability will come very quickly once you have time in the seat and actually have some better riding conditions. Practice "flintstoning" the bike like a kids strider bike...

You would be right at home You would be right at home here in Portlandia. ;-) Robert

The Q 451 is no longer in The Q 451 is no longer in stock, so that would not be a purchase option at this time. That said, the 559 Q can fit every wheel size there is 700c and below, so if you are interested in wheel builds and what works or does not work there are options there if you want...

I like that same one Rick I like that same one Rick posted. I also like the top two furthest to the right on the top row. Crazy looking cool! Robert

I would concur just about I would concur just about 100% with ratz here on this. Robert

What Rich said. The V is What Rich said. The V is simply the fastest bike under the same conditions than any other I have been on. The gap is too wide there. Robert

Many here have hit the points Many here have hit the points that need to be made, but definitely this is a mod that as a company we cannot support. Looking at that second picture in post #63, you could have possibly used a single thinner spacer on top of the pivot clamp - and just...

Anyone who can climb 23% Anyone who can climb 23% sustained climbs loaded is a non-human or on a motorcycle. ;-)

Rick, I have about the same Rick, I have about the same experience. I also find that the bikes feel better and handle better with the bigger chainrings and wider range cassette (when needed) as opposed to mini granny rings.

Triples are way overkill on Triples are way overkill on the low end for Cruzbikes and not necessary - that has been my experience. You can only gear a two wheeler so low anyway. People sometimes want to gear these like they are trikes. Very confusing. :-) I can always spin a higher...

Hello all, There are new Hello all, There are new instructions nearing completion now. The new ones are not radically different that the old ones or than the S30 ones that are up (shared front ends) They should be up shortly. Robert

A big factor in the "turning A big factor in the "turning freely" are the bearings themselves - some spin way more freely than others. I have had people with old square taper cranks complain when we install a new BB because they "don't spin as freely as their old cranks" but the old ones only...
