FWIW, I have an S30 that I've been thinking of putting up for sale. It is one of the last ones sold and is in excellent condition and I have lots of options available for it (e.g. seats, sliders, etc.). Give me holler if you wish to discuss it. Ray

FWIW, I have the fat bike version of the 1 Up rack, and the front arm fits between the crank arms and the bb. So all I have to do to hold my S30 is lower the crossbar one or two positions and the front wheel is held tightly by design. You could convert your rack to the fat bike tray but I...

I put the two layers of grip tape underneath to give a larger diameter grip area with some cushion.

I think I used the 35mm size. It will depend a bit on what kind and how many layers of regular grip tape you put under it. I usually wrap two layers of generic grip tape down first and then secure it with the rod grip shrink tubing.

Lots of brand names on Amazon. An example at https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HSZGR9Q/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1. Just search on: Heat Shrink Wrap Tubing for Rod Grip and you should see several. Ray

I run 32mm Conti 5000s on my S30 with Reynolds AR 650b wheels. A sweet combo with a slightly lowered seat. Ray

A few years ago I put some shrink tubing made for grips on my S30 (https://forum.cruzbike.com/threads/bar-wrap-grips.13900/page-2#post-169558). It has worked fantastically well. Has removed all unraveling and I just use it all the time. I place it over the regular grip tape only in the area for...

I mounted an Origin 8 Light Mount Stub (can see on the Accessories section on the CB store) on the carbon seat headrest mount and it holds a Varia just fine.

I’ve used the Archer Dx1 system on my Azub SIX and was thinking of putting it on my S30. The system is very flexible and does work reliably. However, as the reviews on the web state, it does shift a bit slower than an integrated system like the SRAM AXS. If you ride aggressively you may want...

If the Q45 still has the metal seat, you could replace it with a Thor Easy carbon seat.

Thanks for this. It is useful. I have an S30 and have tried the S40 seat extension with the Adjustable CF seat. It seems to work OK, but I missed the use of a foam interface between the seat and the extension, so the interface is rough and somewhat stressful on the carbon parts. Can you...

I just hang my S30 from the wheels upside down using either a pulley system similar to that shown or simple hooks on a Saris Glide bike storage system. Gets the bike high enough to be out of the way with no problem. The wheels have Reynolds ATR carbon rims and they do just fine. YMMV.

I have somewhat of the same feelings. However, I am using the new seat on an S30. It still has the butt-sliding problem as the S40 but maybe not quite as much. I am using an S40 seat extender with a dual foam cushion (Volae). The transition from the seat to the extender is not noticeable with...

I have never been comfortable with the lack of any shoulder return - it’s just too flat for me. I use a Volae carbon seat instead, but the mount is not elegant. However I’ve always liked the lightness and easy mount of the CB seat.

From the V20c preview emails, we get a glimpse of the new CB carbon seat for the V and the S40. Since it fits those two, I’m guessing it would also fit my S30. The carbon seat has always been the weakest link in their road bike designs in my view. The new one looks much better, and I want...

I just took it from the manual (above) that says "Do Not Exceed 180 psi"

The documentation for these particular shocks is pretty thin on the web, but eventually the story becomes clearer. Basically you are using the large-volume main chamber to mainly set the top-out pressure of the shock. That is set such that regular riding has a max compression drop of about 50%...

My understanding is that they are experiencing web site issues that have been exacerbated by holiday delays in support and some family diversions (new child), etc. It should be back soon. I believe you can get more info at their Facebook page.

This is all probably too late, but a few observations: I had an old Thor Easy seat that I easily fit to a first edition S40 by: 1) cutting small holes in the sides of the reinforcing ribs to allow the upper seat attachment wings to slip into the void of the ribs, while attaching the upper seat...

There appears to be some on Amazon also.
