I'm swamped and I need something quick and dirty. I'm busting my arse trying to get ready to leave for a few weeks to visit my sister and it seems like every tiny little iron I see in a match flame seems to be attached to a double size I-beam stuck in the sun. Given my issues with upgrading my...

Well, it would be if the "solution" to "evil" polluting power generation wasn't banning technologically improved greener facilities. With rational nuclear, it would actually come close to the end-all answer.

Interesting if it passes. Depending on the size of the credit and other wiggle stuff, it might spark a boost in electric bikes/trikes, possibly with full fairings.

Ok, you have given me a new product to go look for the next time I go to the Home Depot. :D

I like the look. That wheel cover, is it stock insulation foam board?

I'll note that you do get frame flex on the front triangle at least. I have a portion of the telescoping top tube that is nice and shiny to prove it when I was specifically getting my starting uphill part down. That wasn't a "it's too loose" release, it was a couple of day later "hmmm, this...

Heh, I used the blue on that misdrilled hole since I decided I didn't want to play with a torch to get it off. It is like a rock. I'll have to get my drill out to take it off, but that is fine.

Hmmm, I go the immediate impression on the shot from behind that it looked like too much reach and he should rotate the other way some (bottom of the bar end back towards rider). Of course, when John T gets here, he will tell you. ;) If you don't want to wait, go ahead and try either way...

NOT A DOCTOR! But, are you experiencing this in any other activity, even to a minor extent? If it is only on the Silvio under the conditions you mentioned, then I'd guess setup. Only reason I asked is that looking at your avatar, you look like you might have a few years on you and I have a...

Couple of questions: 1) As far as I can tell, 24" wheels are in production anymore, correct? Price went up a lot to get the LBS to build them up, but several online places were calling them custom order builds too. 2) LBS advised me that I'd have to replace the crank to shift from my MB triple...

I'm over in Cantonment, but you will have to see me after this weekend. I'm going to be changing the gearing and putting some straight rims on it. :lol: Oh, if you get by and ride it and decide you like it, you might want to think about going ahead and getting a built one. The conversion...

:mrgreen: I hope to God not. According to a gear inch calculator online the difference is about 7-10mph depending on the cadence, but now I need a computer, because that means I'm getting about 20mph out of a 42 tooth ring and whatever is on the back end. I cannot maintain that cadence for a...

I'm on 24" wheels and going to stick with them for a couple of reasons: 1) I'm still too heavy and 2) I have some off road runs that I cannot avoid.

Greetings, I know, long time, no post. Long story, but I'm still riding, just not improving like I wanted to yet. Anyway, I need to do some more upgrading and I'm going to let the LBS work with me on it, but I wanted to explain the problem here and see if anyone has any advice. Using the...

I did it that way too, but the price just keeps going up. 8-)

God, you have to love insurance companies. A) An elderly lady friend's beach house got trashed in a hurricane. I'd bet an engineer would have given it an upcheck to be rebuilt (no major structural damage), but at 75, she decided it was time to move off the beach. B) Two different insurance...

Heh, my problem. My first time out I did so many donuts you wouldn't believe it. Hint: something I learned the first time I sat on my bike to check the fit before it was even ready to pedal, all you ever have to do is put your feet down. You won't spill that way. The first case of killing...

You mean simply discarding the trim until I feel like dealing with it isn't and acceptable solution? :D As for how to do it: I simply lean forward, mash a bit on the pedals and violate the cardinal rule for learning to ride on the Cruzbike, I fight the pedal steer with my arms. It took some...

Maybe 5% of sale price, I don't see how it could hurt Cruzbike, you sell 20 bikes and you can get one free. Of course, if you want a Silvio, you better sell 20 Silvios or a whole lot of either V2.

I've noticed in the small sample I've talked to, that it is actually fairly easy to get older people up and rolling. The teens and young 20s don't listen, don't have enough experience or don't pay attention when I demo the bike. 40s and up, they may not be ready to ride in heavy traffic or...
