Thanks, Now I have to keep my eyes open for some parts. I'm leaning towards the Nexus 8 speed internal hub route, I saw one on ebay that was listed as "from a recumbant". Is there a difference? With the 8 speed I figure I could have a spare bike for my gf or my daughter to ride as well.
Does anyone know anything about these bikes? Google has little information. All I can guess is that it is a Dahon made Raleigh. It looks like a Helios but I've read that it's the same as a 2004 Boardwalk or an Impulse. It has a steel frame, which I actually prefer since the aluminum one doesn't really shave off much weight anyway.
EDIT: This frame is the closest I have found to the one in the pictures:
