I pulled the trigger on one of the early batch V20c complete builds, with the intention of using a wheelset and SRAM Red drivetrain that I had on hand. The price difference between the full builds available first, and the framesets open now for pre-orders and arriving in the fall is $1,400.00. So I figure I would sell this build kit at a reduced price, offering anyone who plans to build up a Vendetta 20c frameset a discount on new parts (parts that are hard to find these days), while I tell myself that the difference between what I paid and what someone might pay here, is simply an upcharge for me being antsy and not wanting to wait until fall for the framesets to arrive.

I don't have any riding experience Microshift, but the reviews that I have read are mostly positive, likening this kit with something like Shimano 105--a good, reliable workhorse group. My eyeball inspection of these parts left me pretty impressed. I will try to sell this kit here first, since it is exactly what a person would need to build up a V20c (though all but the bottom bracket would work just as well on a S40 build; and bottom brackets are easy enough to buy). If a couple weeks goes by without much action, I will probably move this over to eBay.

This kit is mostly as Cruzbike describes it on the V20c page. The pics show a couple of minor differences:

So basically, you bought a complete bike and these parts are removed so you can use your own parts. So in theory, if I have a v20c frame, I will use these parts to complete my bike.

Sometimes I wish that I lived in the USA. Unless I missed the world economy changing drastically, this is awesome for anyone wanting that level of group set. Save some bucks, get brand new quality parts that you know fit perfectly and will save you time fiddling and wondering.

@cruzKurt , you are correct. Had Cruzbike been offering just framesets for that first order, I would have gone that way. But they were only offering complete bikes, so I had to decide if I wanted to wait (no), or spend more now, in hopes of recouping some of the over-cost a little later.

These parts would work on any bike, given the proper BB shell size and flat-mount brake tabs, but as @benphyr points out, this build kit is ready for a V20c without any swaps, including the more recumbent friendly 165mm crank.

Hello sir, is this Kit still available? I think most of these items would be a nice upgrade for my 2019 v20. My v20 has IS mount brake tabs as far as I am aware. I guess I would need an adapter to use these brakes on my 2019 frame. Maybe someone has more knowledge in this area. I have rim brakes on my v20.

Just sent you a message about buying your kit and an S40 frame set. Thanks!
