Any Australian V20 owners out there?

[ste46]

Hi everyone - I am based in Western Australia and am looking for Australian Cruz bike owners as I would love to have a chat about the bikes. I am new to the recumbent world (arrived here via a lumbar disc herniation which is severely impacting my DF cycling ability. I've tried sending messages via the local owners map but have not had much success - which may be due to my tech inability or the newness of this particular internet option. I have done extensive online research and read lots on the forum (you all seem like lovely people) but would love the chance to talk with someone relatively local. I am interested in S40 and V20 models as I am an ultra rider so I have also posted this question on the S40 forum - I hope that this doesn't go against any rules. I have had a look in person at a V20c based in Singapore so have seen the bike in real life but I have more questions and would love to chat if anyone has this model in Australia. Thank you everyone.

I am in Sydney and have a V20 (2020 model??). I have it due to similar back issues as someone who previously did lots of road biking (and racing up to A grade). Happy to discuss further. Mine is setup for high efficiency at high speed. I am not really an ultra rider.... more up to 4 hours as fast I can go is what I like. My bike has a good setup for low CdA for me and as long there are not many long hills not much DF keeps up with it.
