    @Calvin Gen 6 vs Gen 5: stay tuned, more details coming soon. Fairings for the S40 or V20: not from Cruzbike. Too much danger/liability in cross winds. Our bikes do relatively well in strong cross winds (see my upcoming blog about the race in Borrego Springs, California last weekend), but personally I would not put a full or front fairing on a Cruzbike or any bike. Our Race Cage tailbox does improve aerodynamic drag without being a fairing, while offering easy access storage. Seat angle on S40 or V20 is fixed, but the optional CF Adjustable Seat will sit you up a bit more if you feel too reclined on either model. I agree the S40 is a great all-around bike, but there are those of us that prefer the V20c. If I had to choose just one, it would be the V20c. People may disagree, and that is OK.

    I’m interested in what the S40 Gen 6 adds over the Gen 5. I’m also interested in a couple of add-ons. 1. Is there a compatible fairing for either the S40 or V20 I can get, and how much added speed would it offer to each? 2. Is there an option (build or add on) to move the seat angle between 20 and 40 degrees on the V20? I’d probably go for the V20C for the increased speed on flat surfaces if it came with an adjustable seat. But until that’s an option, the hill climbing, plus better view, advantages of the S40 make it an all around better choice for me. I’m sure that’s what others feel as well…so if you want more V20 riders, something to think about. Thanks! Calvin
