I have a couple of Thor seats. They are too wide for the Bacchetta bag. I also reached out to Dana at Bent Up Cycles. His bag is also not wide enough. Radical Designs Wide Solo Aroe bag is the only one I still need to research. Anybody else with a Thor seat on a V20 used this bag? Alan

Just some size feedback. I too have neck issues and just finished the install of a Thor XL Sport G on my V20 and a XL Easy GS on my S40. I ordered with the thicker pad. I'm 6'-1" and kinda have a long torso, so I went with the XL. Both are almost too large. I added a .2" pad under the seat pad...

Not my bike, but just noticed an S40 for sale on Bentrideronline.com. http://www.bentrideronline.com/messageboard/showthread.php?t=149585 Alan

I'll take it. Let me know how you want to work shipping. I'll send you a PM. Thanks Alan

Does anyone have any experience with the above neck rest when using a Thor seat on an S40 or V20? Thanks Alan

Added to a great idea above. There was too much room between the screws and my bottles. I used a couple of 3/4" PVC pipe caps and a short section of pipe. I did have to shorten the caps a bit to get them to work with the screws I had. Alan

Two that I know of. Me in Hartselle, just south of Decatur and Trapdoor2 in Huntsville Alan

Not sure of your size, but I'm 6'-1", 225 lbs. I had similar issue with S40 seat after about an hour or so on the road. I found extending the seat bottom as far forward as the slots would allow (and putting a small rubber bumper on the underside of seat to keep it from rubbing the frame) has...

As I was headed home from work yesterday (1/11/18), I saw a Cruzbike Vendetta or S series on the back of a car turning up County Line Road. I know Trapdoor2 lives in Huntsville. This was the only other Cruzbike I have ever seen in the Huntsville area. Would love to get together for a ride...

FYI - Recumbent Cycle-Con in Nashville just announced for the same dates in 2018.

Congratulations. Thanks for the inspiration. A century is still on my bucket list. Still getting use to my S40. I'm the guy you let ride your Quest at the Ridesouth rally a few years ago. Alan

I have an S40. I routed the brake cable out the right side of the seat, then over to the caliper on the left side. I added some spacers between the cages and the seat to keep them from interfering with the frame and the lip on the seat. I too am new to Cruzbike and learning to ride the S40 has...

I have a Giro 26 ATT (with EuroMesh seat and ADEM neckrest) and just built an S40 (also my first Cruzbike). - Cruzbike learning curve - a little steeper. I have about 75-100 miles on mine and I'm doing pretty well, but still not comfortable pedaling hard on a downhill in high gear above about...

I think I have better components than the stock build (some two levels better). Wheels were bought directly from Velocity. Every thing else came from Amazon. I have about $4300 total invested. It took about 3 relaxed evenings to build and tune. Alan

Correct. Threaded. Alan

Crank set came with BB. Amazon link below. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0055401WS/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A2TE9IQP68MWQU&psc=1' Alan

FYI - I used TRP Spyre SLC Disc Brakes With 160 mm Rotors You will need two F180R160 Post - IS adapters, but the rotors and correct adapters were already in the box with the disc brakes. Alan

Sure. Don't mind. One clarification. Do you mean the disc brake mounts or rim brake mounts? Alan

13 miles last Saturday morning and 13 miles Sunday morning. Best climbing recumbent I have ever been on (but it is also the lightest). Only issue I'm having is hands got a bit numb. I guess I am death gripping the handlebars. I need to learn to relax. Also still not quite comfortable enough yet...

I confirmed that I only have one mounting hole on my FD. While searching around on the internet, I found a 2015 & a 2017 SRAM frame fitment document. All the 11 speed FDs appear to only have one mounting hole and the distance from the braze-on mounting bolt to the center of the BB should be 141...
