Hello Guys & Gals, I am fairly new to the bent world and have checked out a few rides. I went down to the Sunday Portland end of the STP and was able to check...

Hi all, first post here. I'm considering a recumbent and a Bacchetta Corsa or Aero at that. The Bacchetta website seems thin on specs on each model page. Are...
Alan: I have a very clean 05 Strada with a ROTOR Triple Crankset. The bike only has about 2,000 miles on it. It also has a new Fastback Carbon Slim seat bag...
Does any one know if their hard shell seat works on the Corsa, their web site does not say it is an option. Also, can the Corsa be bought in any other color...

I was typing a reply to this as I saw Mark's post come through. In other words, if you want a Corsa, you can have it in any color you want, as long as it's...

To mount the bottle cage you should burn through the mesh with a soldering iron or a heated up nail. This will keep the mesh from unraveling. As far as the...
And I <never> stay pegged on the white line. I can ride it, but I always stay 2 or 3 feet to the left of the white line--staying on the line invites motorists...
