The actual weight is bout equal to my Giant Suede DX - so then it's 2 wheels vs 3 wheels right? Or am I missing something?
Bump? If most of my riding is 'towpath' or MUPs - mostly flatish - what is the opinion? Trike, LWB, SWB, or what? I know one older gent that I see most days on a LWB on the towpath...

Stay on my Giant Suede and just deal with the various pains, or ??? Many folks here either ride both bent and DF, or started on a DF and went Bent - I'd really like your thoughts as I am not in a place that I can just willy-nilly buy different styles til I find the perfect one.

Nearest LBS that carries many styles of recumbents and trikes is bout 120 miles from me - plan to make a trip soon to try different types out...
