Planning to jump into V20 riding in the new year. I know it’s a little different from “normal” recumbents. What are the extra things that would make having one an easier transition?

Patience and determination. I often read claims that the V20 is unstable, but if you'll check the beginning of this video and at 1:16:30 near the end, you can see just how stable it is. These gates are put up to prevent even small mopeds from using the bike path, and when seated the margin for error is very small. The first pass through them is at 28kph (17mph) and the 2nd pass through them is at 43kph (26.7mph).Planning to jump into V20 riding in the new year.

Have you read the comments under the latest GCN video with the V20c? XD (One single account left probably 20 or more comment replies about how unstable the bike allegedly obviously is.)I often read claims that the V20 is unstable
Yeah, I saw some of them. I might have to go back and see who left so many and maybe leave a comment, but probably not. BROL is almost as bad and I am this close to either closing my account there or just removing the bookmark because if they are already in their twilight years and still displaying that unhealthy amount of hate then there really isn't much you can do.Have you read the comments under the latest GCN video with the V20c?

My sentiment exactly...Yeah, I saw some of them. I might have to go back and see who left so many and maybe leave a comment, but probably not.

There was a guy on BROL a decade ago who would jump into every Cruzbike-related thread to make obnoxious comments about how dangerous he thought Cruzbikes were. Bryan Ball had to kick him off the forums several times (he'd make a new profile, but couldn't keep his mouth shut for long). Kind of wonder if that's the same guy. You'd think he'd build a bridge and get over it eventually...(One single account left probably 20 or more comment replies about how unstable the bike allegedly obviously is.)
