    Race Cage

    If I need to be “waterproof” (maybe not 100%) one could treat the nylon shell with something Or Could one remove the shell and bungee in a dry bag?

    Race Cage

    Oh hell - in one swell foop - you just turned my V20 into a viable commuter too. (At least for the days I leave my computer at the office) Sweet.

    Need Help Lowering CdA

    At those speeds air resistance and turbulence will be the biggest differences. * no flappy clothing. Everything tight * clean up the air behind you. Rear wheel cover is the biggest option in this pic. If you can rotate those bullhorns forward and still be comfy, that’ll put your arms...

    Post a Pic of your Ride

    I don't see many action shots in here - lots of us solo riders taking pictures of our unladen swallows (European, African, and American). At risk of taking this thread beyond it's purpose I'll post a couple of my favorite action shots. My dad, after a couple months on his T50 - finally getting...

    INDEED! That's the one and not far from where this photo was taken too. Right on the shores of LakeWashington - along my former commute route.

    Way back when, I published this pic to WikiPedia as an example of a MBB style recumbent. Hence the “in your face” chainring pose. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recumbent_bicycle This was my first Cruzbike. Silvio 1.0

    V2 help please

    I don’t have one rigged up right now for a current picture but - in this panda shot from ca 2015 you can see the free piece of cable around the bottom bracket and through the hole. There may be other newer solutions but - yeah - you pretty much have it.

    How do I identify my specific model V?

    Touche @castlerobber . I didn’t read through all of your posts but the 1.5 designation was, I believe, a “community” named bike. Where Tor figured out that he could fit the 2.0 boom on a 1.0 frame. Pretty sure by the time that boom was around there was no such “commercial” model. :) Also - that...

    How do I identify my specific model V?

    also - I'm jealous of how aero you get to be on that bike. Maria runs her bikes with a similarly elevated crank on the V bikes - her CDA is amazing because of that. At 5'11" I have to run my crank a ways further (not too bad really) and as a result - I just push more air. Enjoy!

    How do I identify my specific model V?

    posting here is 'the way' and this looks like a combination. That top tube is Vendetta 2.0 - the multi-mount-points at the headset and the size/shape is the giveaway for that. (before they started calling them just V) The earlier top tubes had issues (maintenance, usability, etc) The frame...

    Cruzbike Sighting - Google Maps

    * - I forgot the PSA note on What3Words - if you haven't heard of it before I recommend giving it a look. Great way to get a riding group assembled in the right location. Instead of meeting - "at the water fountain in the big baseball in the ground between diamonds #4 and #5 at the NW end of...

    Cruzbike Sighting - Google Maps

    Last September, while out riding, I noticed a *mapping vehicle* going by (big camera, roof mounted, little car). I stopped and noted my position using What3Words (https://what3words.com/brings.body.genuine)* and sent myself an email about 6 months into the future. I stumbled on that draft email...

    4300 miles across North America on my S30

    Love the write-up and the pics. This is something I've considered (at various stages of seriousness) for several years and it is nice to see the vistas and all bringing me right back to the more serious end of consideration. I especially love the foggy tunnel- shots (tho I've ridden in a long...
