Silvio 2.1 (NOTE: the frame says 2.0, but we call this version of the 2.0 the 2.1 due to the paint scheme and a couple of small insignificant improvements over the original 2.0)

This Silvio has been MODIFIED with a Hostel Shoppe seat conversion, Ventisit seat pad, ADEM adjustable neckrest. The ADEM neckrest has also been modified with CURVED ABS pad holder and a Ventisit neckrest pad for your comfort. Also included is the original ADEM neckrest pad. BUT can easily be converted back to stock...all stock seat, headrest, pads, and hardware are included.

NOTE: The Hostel Shoppe seat will come with two rear blocks, one low and one higher for alternating seat angles. When I get a chance I will post the different of the two seat angles, and how they differ from the stock seat.

The bike also comes with the stock seat, pads, and headrest, all new and can be reverted back to stock.

This bike is in Excellent Condition, and well maintained. The frameset has 3736 Strava documented miles on it, but you would never know it, with most all components well under that. For instance, the Rotor Q-ring has less than a hundred miles on it. I replaced the bar tape, tires, and tubes for the sell. The bike has never been wrecked, however there are a couple of minor scratches.

I set this bike up as a California Comfort Climber

Just had a chance to meet Rick and ride this Silvio. Rick is very personable and extremely knowledgeable about Cruzbikes.
This Silvio is better than new. He has improved the seat, derailleurs and gearing. Cosmetically it is beautiful, looks brand new. You can't go wrong with this bike.

Thanks Walt appreciate the plug. Had a great time riding Cruzbike's with Walt yesterday. My first time to ride with another Cruzbiker. Walt had never ridden a Silvio 2.0 before, this was his first time, although he owes a Softrider. I was amazed and surprised at how fast he jelled to the unfamiliar bike. The bike wasn't even setup for his height. After riding through my neighborhood we headed out to the main road with some small ascents and descents and one pretty good short climb with a very fast descent.

I wish I knew someone to put on this because it's such a great deal. I'd be a great bike for me to have for the purpose of letting people join me on a test ride but damned if I just don't have the space.

Boy, that's tempting, especially with the seat mod. If I could just get my husband's Kettwiesel sold...several folks looking, but none of them serious...

What x-seam is the bike set up for?

My xseam is around 41". The seat in the photos is a Hostel Shoppe medium. However I currently have a carbon fiber hard shell large, the one Jason borrowed in which Walt used, he's 6'1".

Lovely bike, I like how the Cruzbike crest is on the slider rather then on the head tube.
If I remember correctly, anyone may correct me if I'm wrong, but that's where (I thought) the instructions said to place it. Now it is entirely possible that I misinterpreted the instructions too.
