    More fun with wheels -Aero style

    Thanks Gary for the spy shots I have been doing some test with various combinations of wheels to try and see which ones performed the best. But with the wind being so strong and pretty gusty, the results where all over the board. Each test was done for 5 minutes on a oval track. I did about...

    Multi-Day Ride: 100 miles a day

    Heck, forget the bottle, just water the road as you go by.... :) ... It is amazing how a full bladder can make you so uncomfortable! I have been experimenting with condom cathedars for my upcoming 24 hour at Sebring. They seem to work pretty good, but man........ are they "painful"...

    Another V20 Build Adventure

    yes, GXP XD-15 works well for me... but I have SRAM GXP crankset to go with it, not sure about This is what you want if the GXP works for you, probably can't get much better! http://www.enduroforkseals.com/id225.html I found this, but haven't had a chance to really dissect it...

    Multi-Day Ride: 100 miles a day

    My 2 cents Hi Ivan, All the comments that I have seen are really good, so I will not duplicate them. As only been riding Cruzbike since last June, I am a novice compared to everyone else that has replied, so I will also just give you my impressions for your training since I have also been...

    Let the V20 build begin

    I must admit, it sure is an obnoxious THING!! ... but if it helps me go faster and farther, then I'll put up with it.

    Let's talk front wheel removal

    I'm surprised Ratz - that you did not just jump on into your garage and show us how to make one! .. I can see one BIG problem for me is that it is so small, I would probably loose it - guessing that's why you bought 2! :)

    Let the V20 build begin

    Oh - yeah - double pedal holes Forgot to mention that. I did them at my work (with help) We build grinding machines there. I am the programmer and the IT guy. Anyway, I have 150mm cranks on my current V2.0, but wanted to experiment with something a little shorter, so just marked and tapped...

    Let the V20 build begin

    Thanks Gary for posting those Thanks Gary for posting those pics of the boom "modification". It works great like this - clamp is nice and tight, so feel pretty good about the mod. Following are pics showing the installed XD-15 BB, cranks, pedals, Rotor XQL rings, front and rear derailleurs...

    Let the V20 build begin

    I think a thick enough "disk" I think a thick enough "disk" that Gary and I had discussed will probably do the trick and allow the clamp to tighten onto the boom well enough. Of course if "someone" would just say: "Hey Larry - I have a V2.x slider you can have" - then my problem will be...

    Let the V20 build begin

    work in progress The first part of this build has gone rather slowly. We (Gary helping me of course) needed to "mock-up" the estimated boom length (from my V2.0) because the smaller tube of the boom would not fit into the larger piece due to the thickness of the powder coating. So, had...

    Let the V20 build begin

    is is Blair, I concur with Andrew on the anodized parts. You could polish those guys, but it would be a TON of work - and greater possible expense. I decided against it and opted for the powdercoat chrome color. Not as "reflective" as the polished chrome, but acceptable to me at this...

    New $499 crank-mounted Power Meter to hit market in 2015

    My take on the power stuff Sorry for the late reply on the forum - have been out of town for 4 days. Just back now. I've clearly been affected by something??? to buy the KICKR, Garmen Vector pedals and a second V20. But I suspect most of it was because I sold my BMW, so I had the...

    Ready to build the ultimate Vendetta racing machine

    Molten Speed Wax - anybody used this stuff? Thanks Buddy for the info on the wax! Wow - I read up on how to do this on their web-page. Looks like a lot of work - Maybe it gets easier after you do it a few times. Also looks like 70% of the effort is to get the chain clean in the first...
