I posted here because the recumbent forum didn't look that frequented and I plan to use it as a commuter. But if I should have posted there please move this tread.
First, if you find a bike that rides well for $100, you've done well. But a recumbent bike for $100? You got a steal.
I'll second the recommendation for BROL (Bent Riders Online) and, oh yeah, welcome to the dark side.
