Earlier this year someone in Oklahoma had a vendetta for sale and we exchanged emails but I have lost all of his information (bloody computer!!). If you are that person and still have the vendetta for sale, could you advise please. Thanks.

I wish I could ride with you, I wish I could ride with you, Shakey. People who live on Vancouver Island should pay a special fee for living in the garden of Eden. If ever I come into some money, I'm moving there.

Wow! Before I finished Wow! Before I finished posting a reply to Eric, I clicked on his link to see a photo of him and when I got back my post had disappeared, so I'll have to start again. On closer look at the photo in the brochure I see that it has the name 'Bachetta' on the frame, so I...

No this is for the 2014 event No this is for the 2014 event and I don't see a female rider on a Vendetta.

Eric, I've just received a Eric, I've just received a copy of the National 24 Hour Challenge event brochure and on the 3rd page is a photo of a racer on a Vendetta, is that you? This event is in your neck of the woods, so maybe you race that? Ken. Bessies Creek24.com

Thanks Eric. Running out the Thanks Eric. Running out the door now, but I'll post when I get back.

Thanks for the replies. I'm Thanks for the replies. I'm not really ready to buy a new vehicle as well as a new bike, so this is still unresolved. I know there are recumbents on the PBP, but I get the impression these front wheel drive bikes suffer from stability problems, so riding solo is...

I don't know if I'm getting any closer to obtaining a Vendetta, but to repeat a question asked before on this forum, do any owners of Vendettas have any info on what it takes to transport a vendetta by air and by vehicle? I can put my standard bike in the back of a car with the front wheel...

Vendetta Has this bike been sold?

Recumbents are rare in Recumbents are rare in Houston as well these days. At one time - maybe 4 -5 years ago, there were quite a number, but not so now. Lots of standard road bikes, a few tandems - there used to be a lot more of them as well at one time - but bents seem to have fallen...

Latest bid is $1,450 - Latest bid is $1,450 - probably from someone on this board. If they can get it at the price good for them. Alan wanted $2,100 for it, so a bid at that price is a good deal and half the cost of a new frame set. Ken.

So, is it possible to measure So, is it possible to measure how much faster the Vendetta is over the Silvio? Or is that too arcane a concern?

Eric, when I rode the Hotter Eric, when I rode the Hotter n Hell ride there was so many riders that if you were alert you could get carried along with the mass at very high speeds. It was like a giant vacuum cleaner sucking you along. Crashes were occurring all over the place but you...

Is it fair to say that the Is it fair to say that the lighter the front end is the more stable the bike is going to be? I know with my standard bike with clip-on aerobars, that the extra weight over the front wheel does require some adjustment in allowing the handlebars to have their head...

Carrying a Cruz bike A bit off this topic, but I carry any of my bikes in the trunk/boot of my car by lowering the rear seat and taking the front wheel off. I don't want to have to go to the expense of buying and fixing a carrier for a Cruz if I ever do get one, but this is an important...

Jim, do you have a plan to Jim, do you have a plan to step up your distance riding, maybe some of the 12 and 24 hour events?

True, but isn't the question True, but isn't the question; would a seller be prepared to do that and ship it?

It's okay, I've taken my meds It's okay, I've taken my meds now.

Larry is your Silvio finished Larry is your Silvio finished yet? I've been backpacking in the high Sierras and may have missed your post if you have completed it. Thanks. Ken.

One of the problems with One of the problems with buying a used - and assembled - bike is the cost of shipping. I have been quoted $ 200 - 400 to ship bikes across the country ($600 overseas). And then there is the packing to be done by the seller. I have a bike case for a standard...
