Op, Bents are great BUT,,,

Take your time here, you simply must test ride a few different types.

My LWB Tour Easy Is Right for me, for how I ride.
This same bike may be totally wrong for another person, even someone who is my exact weight, size and physical condition.

You simply MUST test ride, Choosing a bent Is a very personal endeavor.
Driving several hundred miles to find bents is worth the time and expense.
Bents are that good !

The deepest well of 'Bent' knowledge found anywhere is IMO here : http://www.bentrideronline.com/index.php
