Riding a Vendetta

[drbrag]

I am seriously considering buying a Vendetta but am concerned about learning to ride a FWD recumbent and riding in such a laid back position. I have been riding a carbon Bacchetta for several years. do you vendetta owners really notice a performance difference? Any feedback would be appreciated Alan Bragman

Vendetta v Bacchetta

Alan ...

I've set several UMCA cross state records, course records and completed 400 miles of the Race Across the West on my Bacchetta Ti Aero.

I train on both mountains and flats on the Bacchetta, the Cruzbike Silvio and the Cruzbike Vendetta. Nothing climbs like the Cruzbikes. I am certain I would have done better on my UMCA records, course records and RAW experience on both the Silvio and Vendetta --- better on the Vendetta.

Tomorrow I'm off to ride this course on my Silvio, after already riding it on both the Bacchetta and Vendetta. The Vendetta destroyed the Bacchetta. http://connect.garmin.com/activity/125123252
