Hi, It was mine. A ticket to ride on bike. I am in city called Pune in India. The traffic conditions warrant that you should have fine control on the vehicle. ...

Can anyone recommend a specific make and model for a front derailer for a Freerider v2. Just got the bike new and can't muscle up much of a hill with the...
Hi, I agree - if the area is hilly - number 1 criterion is - go for a lighter frame. The kit adds a 6 Kgs to it. So lighter the original frame is the better. I...
Any standard front derailleur should fit. I am saying this, since if you use a kit for conversion, the front derailleur comes from the donor bike. But if you...
You might be able to order a Cruzbike softrider with a triple and short cranks.155s .The short cranks are easier on the knees,Its not hard to build a 36lb kit...
... The Freerider only has one gear on the front. After searching old threads last night I think what I'm missing is a clamp on cable stop. Now to find one...
... I think i see the missunderstanding. The freerider does indeed come with a derailure that changes the 8 gear cassette. I think the gear changer on the...
It seems I've been bitten by the Cruzbike bug. However, having never riden one, I don't know whether this will turn into a positive addiction or a passing...
Howdy Jim, I have a conversion that I made from a Walmart Mongoose that I have been riding for about 15 months now and I like it a lot. At the end of the build...
... welcome :-) i bought a little over a year ago. I bought a complete Freerider because i knew i didnt have the tools to make a conversion. Beside that, i had...
I got a kit and fitted on a light weight non-Y frame bike. See my album posted - 'pramodan's bike'. I learnt to drive it in three days - and after that...

i added a clamp-on cable stay and a shimano deore lx front derailleur along with a shimano octalink road crankset to give me 32-42-52 from the stock 42T. the...
NEED TO SELL, not necessarily want to, but fundage problems and the ol' right knee tells me that something has to go... I'm in the Dallas area. I used a...
Thanks! The home made cable stay seems to be working for now. Now I'm looking for a water bottle holder and basket/rack. I found a nice heavy duty rack that...
... Hi i put normal water bottle holders on the back side of the seat, one in each side. I dont remember if there was holes, if not i just drilled them. It...
Cool. Thanks Jon! I'm headed over to recycled bike parts store in seattle to see what they have for racks and baskets. There are pre drilled holes in the...
Hello All, I just bought a CATEYE STRADA WIRELESS bike computer, and shortly found out that it would not work on the Sofrider for 1-3 reasons: 1- The sensor...
Spence, don't throw that computer out yet - I think you can probably use it. First, are you sure that the sensor has to be mounted on the right? I've had...
... As Kregg said, you can put the sensor anywhere that works. All of them (AFAIK) just count the magnetic pulses as the wheel turns. Aside from spacing...
Hey Greg, Thanks for the response. So far I have had two replies. Between the ideas put forth by the two of you I will give it another go. The specs for...
