Unfortunately, I have to reduce my 2 wheel inventory. I am selling my CruzBike kit. I have a front end conversion kit. This is a quill type assembly for 26"...

Dear all, I'm interested in the MBB concept, but have concerns about ridability and expense. Therefore, I would like to get some first-hand experience before I...
While I had to take about 8 weeks off from riding due to a shoulder injury from crashing my singlespeed upright, I made the following tweaks to my Cruzbike. 1....
Hi Carl, I had noticed the added picture and was very interested in what you'd have to say... How did you change the trail - rear suspension adjustment? I have...
Hi Doug: Since I originally installed a 26" rim in a rigid 26" fork, I used the standard, not the 700c bracket. I originally installed the bracket on the...
After making some adjustments to my Cruzbike, I have moved the reach of the front brake to approximately 75mm - too far for center pull caliper brakes. I need...
Hey Carl, You're using 26" wheels, correct? If so, that fork should work okay with the standard triangle brackets. If you're using 700c wheels, you'd need a...
Thanks for responding Doug. Yes, I am using 26" wheels. The steering tube of the fork takes a 22.2mm stem. I believe this is the proper diameter for the...

hi, I have added a photo of my cruzbike project in progress. http://sports.ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/Cruzbike/photos/view/6d48?b=3&m=f&o=0 There photo shows...
Hi Dennis: My comment would be that it seems with the seat that low, the handlebars will be relatively high and you would be reaching up too much to grab the...
Hi Dennis, Carl's observation should be helpful; on the frames I've used, the handlebars generally end up 16 to 19 inches above the flat of the seat base. Is...
thanks carl & doug for your replies, i'm planning on cutting the steerer tube (not the fork steerer; the cruzbike stem extension). here's a picture of the bike...
I have added 2 new photos to the 'lowracer cruzbike' album. http://sports.ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/Cruzbike/photos/browse/6d48 One shows the seat recline at...
FWIW the CruzBike is taking a Beating on Yahoo Power-Assist today by people who have never ridden one. Anyone here who is a member might like to help set these...
Hi Joshua, I went over there and had a look - seems like some questions we've encountered before. I posted and invited folks to come over here and look at what...
Hi Dennis: That's a very cool looking arrangement you have. I hope you get the seat set up to your liking - I don't see any reason why you wouldn't be able to...
I keep defending the Cruzbike design which is brilliant in that it gets people into bents for far less cash than in the past, just wish I could figure out how...
Hi Joshua, Thanks for defending the concept. I think I understand the reasons why it's criticized, after all it is new and different, and folks like to apply...
Well for people with knee and hip issues the high seat is a problem , but a really low one is too. I'd go for a seat base around 16 inches from the ground up...
Just finished the installation of the front brake cable & rear (but it's on the front wheel now) derailleur. there is only one chainring so no front...
Now we're talking, this is what the CruzBike should have been all along. Nice and easy to mount/dismount and it will be a faster ride, C of G is better and...
