Forgot? Perhaps, or intentionally left out due to lack of personal recumbent experience.
We can attempt to fill that gap (though I've only had a couple years experience myself). Everything Stapfam said basically applies to Recumbents also. No two ride the same, material affects the ride, plus with recumbents the configuration (Short Wheel Base vs. Long Wheel Base) affects the ride.
