Might not be good enough. I read a post just this morning about a shop that was listed on a manufacturer's website yet had only one dusty trike hanging from the ceiling.

If you aren't already sure about exactly what you want/need, I'd strongly recommend taking a road trip to a recumbent specialty dealer. They'll be able to explain and let you test ride the different designs, they'll know how to set it up to fit your body, and they'll be able to discuss the issues involved with transporting, storing and riding the varying designs.
