**SOLD** Silvio 2.0 $1650. Greenville SC/Asheville NC

[BentAero]

The Silvio is making the trek across the pond to join a V20 in gorgeous Austria, a wonderful place that I long to visit again! Thanks everyone, I so miss riding with you!

Very nice Silvio 2.0
I bought it thinking I'd get back into riding (long story) but never have. I rode this around the parking lot when I purchased it, and have never ridden it since. Pathetic, I know...

SRAM 50-34 front rings
11-28 10 spd cassette
Red carbon crank, 165mm
Red front derailleur
Force rear derailleur
Red brake calipers
Force Brifters
Generic carbon wheels w/ Novatec hubs (spin super nice!)
Conti Grand Prix 4000 700x25 tires

I'm halfway between Greenville SC and Asheville NC, and regularly travel to both. (No papers, so far!)
Much prefer local handoff. I'll begrudgingly ship at buyers expense.

Also have V2K Sofrider for sale in separate post.

Nice bike, I like the red and black looks good. I also have this model Silvio 2 but yours is much nicer.

You can't go wrong buying a bike from Gary - He was my introduction to Cruzbike 5 1/2 years ago - and also helped me purchase my first Cruzbike: a Silvo just like this, then 4 months later helped me swap all the components over to a Vendetta Frame. Master Craftsman and bike guru extraordinaire! Miss riding with you Gary! Come visit me in Hilton Head

I briefly tried an S40. How does the Silvio 2.0 compare?

 

[Charsone]

I am wondering as well

@Rsnoeyink @Charsone
I am negotiating with @BentAero for this sale however I can answer your questions about Silvio 2 compared to S40:
The S line began with Silvio (1) then Silvio 1.5 that were welded frame, dual (small range) suspension, seat at 45 degrees.
Silvio 2.0, 2.1 got hydroformed frame and kept the other features, seat angle 27 degrees
S30 same except non-suspended front fork, kept the rear suspension, seat angle 33 degrees
S40 several generations of the current model - no suspension, disc brakes, lots of touring mount points, seat angle 40 degrees

So the main differences are seat angle (27 degrees on Silvio 2 vs. 40 degrees on S40), suspension, and improvements in specs and such.

I find the Silvio S2 to be quicker, faster bike than S40. It’s lighter & has a shorter wheelbase. To me they are completely different bikes & I ride both

Experience speaks an entirely different language than geometry numbers. Thank you for the comparison.

Well if something falls through, please let me know. I would be willing to drive from Indianapolis to pick it up, but shipping will probably be easier and faster.

Hi Gary, just sent you a message.
I am looking for a silvio for my girlfriend.
She want`s to switch from a regular road bike to a Cruzbike.
Since I have the V20 It`s difficult
to find a suitable pace together...;-)
Your bike would fit perfectly for my girlfriend.
Don`t know if you are interrested to pack the bike in a solid box to ship it to Austria.
Best regards Christian

I am planning on going to Amsterdam in July for the HPV World Champsionships: (https://www.facebook.com/groups/HPVWC2018) - I might could help get the bike there for you guys if you can make a deal? Probably would be safer and cheaper for me to take on the plane with me.
Christian - How far are you from Amsterdam?

 

[Hubert Dohr]

Hi Larry, thanks for your great offer!

Amsterdam is round about 1100km far from my hometown.
The other thing is that Maria can`t wait till July.
she want`s to ride with the cruzbike as soon as possible.

Thanks, Christian and Maria
