help me pick a SWB recumbent
Appreciate input!
Have been researching recumbent and have developed the following criteria:
SWB
Speed - as fast or faster than my Serotta Legend for spirited Club weekend and weekday training rides
between speed and comfort not sure which is priority
Comfort - ride 160-mile ride across Indiana and possibly week long tour or brevets
Climbing - good climber, want to be able to get my body into it? - almost exclusively remain seated on DF - many 15%+ short hills in Southern Indiana
BB-low enough to see road-may need guidance here
wheels-prefer 700 standard road bike wheels
prefer made in USA-Rans, Volae, Edge, Easy Racer and Lightning are the manufacturers that I am aware of that manufacture some or all models in USA.
also rack and bag accessories
good customer service
