I have not built a V or S I have not built a V or S where the BB needed to be faced - the anodized surfaces are very flat and the process does not add any gunk to the surfaces. If they end up painted however, then yes it is a good idea to face them to ensure nice even surfaces. Here in Portland...

Sandy, All great advice here. Sandy, All great advice here. - The results are well worth the patience as anyone here will attest. Also pay attention to the setup - I dialed your bike is according to your measurements but over time you may find that tweaking the pedal reach/handlebar...

That bag looks very similar That bag looks very similar to the Viscaha bag: https://www.revelatedesigns.com/index.cfm/store.catalog/Seat-Bags/Viscacha ?Hoping for these other items to be around come late spring in time for the season. No promises though.

Just a heads up, We have Just a heads up, We have Ventisit comfort cushions in stock. I absolutely love mine. They can be a "like it or not" thing. For me I had to add the stock foam from the OEM cushion (not the dense one just the filter) and it is perfect. It looks awesome too...

I have side entry cages under I have side entry cages under my seat and feel it works well. The Fastback from Terracycle will also work but needs a few mods to how it mounts at the top. Other options are in the hopper but I can't give away too much but stay tuned. ;-) For a back bag...

Ah yes that was the last Ah yes that was the last weekend before I had it repainted. :-) For those interested the paint code for the V20 is YS-751. It is a Metallic. There is of course never a guarantee of a 100% match.

I will agree - once you have I will agree - once you have some good training miles under the belt a Cruzbike is about as stable a platform I have ever been on - other than just standing on a platform. HA! This last Cycle Oregon there was one section of climb - about 5-6% grade and it was...

Kiwiguy - That is an early Kiwiguy - That is an early version 1 Vendetta that I had repainted. It is actually a different red than the V20. I only had the boom and frame redone - it is the old slider and fork. Robert

paint While I agree that the painted boom on the last version is awesome, the new slider and boom is not suited to paint as easily. The last V painted boom was fixed - nothing slid against it. The new boom goes inside the slider and if it were paint would scratch easily. The slider is designed...

I have tried to keep up with I have tried to keep up with Maria on a ride before, but alas I did not have my old Kawasaki Ninja 750r - so it was rather hopeless. ;-) Robert

A 38 may be a tight fit. A 38 may be a tight fit. Given that different rim widths and tire profiles all interchanged will create all sorts of varying widths it might have to be a "try and see" thing unless someone has some definitive experience. Robert

baov, Roughly 43mm at the baov, Roughly 43mm at the very top of the crown area as it tapers in towards the top. In a 650 wheel there would be a bit more width since the fit of the tire would be further down the fork. Robert

Moving to a narrow bar is Moving to a narrow bar is best done as a gradual thing, as you get used to the inputs needed on the handlebars. Going too narrow though and while gaining aero I think that all leverage would be sacrificed and I wonder if sprinting and bursts of speed on hills would be...

Lief, I didn't think you Lief, I didn't think you sounded non-appreciative of your Silvio V1 - I was just trying to pry it from you hahahaha! I did Cycle Oregon 2014 on my V1 Vendetta. 34,000 feet of elevation in 6 days. No WAY I would have been able to do that on another bike...

Lief, I will gladly take that Lief, I will gladly take that older tan...-er...Silvio off your hands Different animals though for sure - that is the beauty of the different Cruzbike models. Each one fills a need, yet all of them are fast by comparison to other bikes of similar...

Yea!! I also got your email Yea!! I also got your email and have to give you a call here today. Congratulations and welcome! :-) Robert
