Bob, I am thoroughly enjoying Bob, I am thoroughly enjoying this thread. Lots of good info being discussed here. Oh, and quit sending your dang wind down to Florida during the Bike Sebring weekend. It was really bad last year. Maybe gusting a bit more during the day this year but...

I had bought a yard of yellow I had bought a yard of yellow lycra before Bike Sebring to try your wrap around the outside of the frame technique but haven't tried it yet. But yeah with lights, battery cases, water bottles, repair kit, the rider, etc. it is tough to keep it aero. -Eric

YES, YES, YES!!!! You're YES, YES, YES!!!! You're hired. That is pretty darn close to what I was imagining. Except mine is higher on the headrest since I've got short-itis... -Eric

Henry, I think most of that Henry, I think most of that is folks with a Sofrider budget but a SIlvio or Vendetta appetite - no disrespect intended. I originally started looking with the Sofrider pricing in mind but was drawn to the thought of ultracycling and speed, hence the Silvio but then...

What is the mainstream? Where What is the mainstream? Where I do most of my riding the highest number of bike riders I typically see are road bikes most of which are trying to go fast. From Nanda Holz's increased emphasis on recumbent trikes and based on activity on BentRider and...

But first, please scrap the But first, please scrap the current seat and headrest and create something new using real carbon fiber (or other suitable material)... http://www.recumbents.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4385 PS - Would love to visit Taiwan with you. -Eric...

Nanda's Flickr photostream Nanda's Flickr photostream has several photos of some of his brainstorming. The hardshell he was playing with looks pretty good except for the curved up lip at the leading edge of the seat base. I think short riders like you and me , because of where the bottom...

Cool, thebean is back! Sorry Cool, thebean is back! Sorry to hear about the struggles but glad to hear that same Lisa enthusiasm for life. When you do get to try out a 2.x Silvio, I am quite curious to find out what you think of it and how your neck/back does with the current recline...

I like the looks of the I like the looks of the slightly inboard hand position where the drop bullhorn drop . How does that spot feel on the road? A bit twitchy? Got a set of rollers? -Eric

Yeah but you can carry duct Yeah but you can carry duct or duck tape in the bags! Yellow on one side and blue on the other. -Eric

Yeah, yeah, I've already Yeah, yeah, I've already established my duck tape cred. I am a duck tape virtuoso! I only used blue because I had some on hand I had bought for a project my son was working on and this was my prototype. Hrrrmmph.... -Eric

Ken, that looks great. I just Ken, that looks great. I just wish they had devised the seating to be stowed away flat even with or below the top of the bumper all the way to the front seat backs. However, your solution is excellent and I really like your bike transport platforms. How...

John, I'm gonna get Tim T. to John, I'm gonna get Tim T. to help me with the bag... But what I think it needs is some kind of tool-free quick disconnect from the headrest so it can be quickly installed or removed when desired. Perhaps make a set of different sizes for different...

OK Tim, I need you to give me OK Tim, I need you to give me pannier maker training. Or hire you to make my Quiver bag.... -Eric

Oh very cool, I forgot all Oh very cool, I forgot all about those! I figured those were some kind of oops as I couldn't think of anything to mount there. I've always kind of liked the 451 Quest with the more conventional drivetrain. I think I could use that model on my KICKR trainer. Hmmm...

A wrap like Eric did I think you are referring to wrapping the headrest cover around my customized headrest foam and "Quiver"/"Windshadow" rack? I didn't wrap the cover, I just layed it flat on top of the foam strips and then used a couple of velcro straps to hold in place as a quick...

Hmmm, with a name like Flying Hmmm, with a name like Flying Furniture I suppose I'm not too surprised at their opinion... And everything they describe is just as applicable to a RWD recumbent or upright. -Eric

How did you mount the Sun How did you mount the Sun EZ-1SC Underseat Bike Rack? Thanks, -Eric
