FWIW: test ride a few before you make your decision. There's a few recumbent riders in Iowa- seek them out and give a couple different bikes a try. No one - and I mean
no one - can put you on the "perfect" bike. You'll have to work that out for yourself.
Not quite true. If there's not a local dealer who sells Bacchetta, you can purchase one directly. I believe local is within 100 miles.
A test ride is strongly suggested in any case.
