Cruzbike Silvio - $2100
2009 Cruzbike Silvio (~3k miles)
Shimano 105 brifters (integrated brake/shift levers)
Shimano 105 brakes
Shimano 105 Front Derailleur, Ultegra Rear Derailleur
Velocity Fusion wheelset, like new
Vredestein Fortezza Tricomp 700x25 tires
Sugino 48-36-24 triple crankset
Ultegra 12-30 cassette
WTB Mountain Road bars
Axiom Rear Rack
The bike is in excellent condition, rides great. It has some small scratches here and there.
The gearing is lower than the standard setup which I think is ideal. I never wanted a lower nor a higher gear.
The 24 chainring and 30 cog gear combination was low enough to get me up steep streets. Without such low gears I would have had to walk up a several hills in my neighborhood.
I think the WTB bars are perfect on this bike, the hand & arm position is super comfortable.
The bike comes with an Axiom rear rack (perfect rack for this bike). Sorry the trunk bag in the pictures is not included with the sale.
Why am I selling? I 'downgraded' to a Quest 599 because I have special needs since I've had back surgery. I worry about road shock going up my spine, and the Quest has a softer rear suspension and allows wider tires (=softer ride).
However, I think the Silvio is a bit more fun to ride and definitely faster, so if you don't have any health issues like me, I'd recommend you buy this bike. I will miss it.
Currently the bike is available only in the SF Bay Area (I'm in Burlingame). If you're not in my area, please stay posted, In a few weeks I'll offer to ship the bike if nobody locally buys it.
