The this frame is an original Vendetta frame (Hydro-form) - it originally had the big boom & slider. The black one shown in this photo is was put on after the fact (unless there were some proto-types sold out there that I do not know about) - The best of my knowledge the red V20 was the first...

I just love watching Cruzbikes passing motorcycles! Great video as always Mathew!

I have the same issue on an S40. The V20C is lower therefore a little easier to start and stop for short-legged people like us.

I was hoping to see where the end of you boom was at your handlebar connection. Ideally a short video of you from the side pedaling circles (without your chain on) is the best. To me your knees could be lower. I would try a shorter chainstay to drop your knees, got 145 cranks so you feet don't...

If you are close enough to come to the Cruzbike Museum (Hilton Head Island, SC), I can get you on both an S40 and V20C with both 700 and 650 wheelsets so you can see the difference. The V20C is much lower and you would probably not have an issue you leg length. Plus you can always put a wedge in...

I think a curved slider would help this Cd*A get lower. Show me a side view of you with one of you feet on the pedal at its apex and I might have some other ideas.

That is correct. Any Quest model predates the current Q45 Series. The Gen-1 of Q45 was released March of 2018 So, that means this model is could be 7-10 years old. The "556" nomenclature may refer to the ISO rim diameter of 559mm, which corresponds to a 26-inch wheel size. Not really sure...

You might need to. Is this ring part of a Rotor crank? If so you might need to keep it on to prevent the crank from sliding back and forth. You really night need to get them involved - or whoever the maker is.

surprised your LBS does not have one - just keep trying it - spin it backwards until you can feel the click when it runs past the first thread and then slowly start trying to wind it on. I have had a few that were a little challenging to get started. Other things to try. take a really strong...

I have a tap to run through - sometimes the paint process gunks it up a little. That large of a tap is a little pricy though - You can probably take it to you LBS and they will probably do it for you for free to cheap - This is the easy way to clean it out

I look forward to what you finally produce and use

Thanks for sharing Perry - great rides with great climbs - both conquered!

I think you need to have at least 6 posts to fall off the new member list. Just bring up 6 different things and reply a few words in each.

If you ride with wider handlebars you will have better balance on the steeper slopes (with practice) - I have personally witnessed Tor climbing 23% grades slowly and methodically , where I could not do it - partly because out of practice but partly because I had super narrow handlebars barley...

I will see if I can bring and extra one for you from the Cruzbike Museum and have it there for you to try and ride - and even purchase when we are done if you like

NOTE: This is a scam - leaving the thread so we all know - but will block the creator

FYI: Your "link" is not a link. Also since you are listed as a "new member" - it would be helpful if you provided a little more proof of your identity, location: Strava link that shows you with the bike on some rides, GPS tagged photo showing location that matches Engelhard, etc. Not to...

Nice looking Q45, since you are listed as a "new member" - it would be helpful if you provided a little more proof of your identity, location: Strava link that shows you with the bike on some rides, GPS tagged photo showing location that matches where you say you are from, etc. Not to disrespect...

Nice looking V20, since you are listed as a "new member" - it would be helpful if you provided a little more proof of your identity, location: Strava link that shows you with the bike on some rides, GPS tagged photo showing location that matches Fremont, etc. Not to disrespect you - it will just...

I know Jim & Maria rode their Cruzbikes in a couple triathlons - I think they have to be "CAL-Tri" version that allows recumbents.
