Would anyone out there in recumbent land have a kickstand for my FX that they would like to sell? My poor little FX hasn't learned how to stand up on it's own...

Has anyone changed out the 16" front wheel and fork to accept a 20" wheel on an FX? Or for that matter, or any of the BikeE models? Safe Rides, Yoda...
If you look in the BikeE mailing list archives there are discussions of this, but yes, it has been done. It is not trivial and the handling will change. For...
Hi Yoda - I have an NX on which the previous owner, a skilled machinist, carefully machined out the top of the fork to allow it to accept a narrow 20" wheel....
We find the handling of our E2 a bit twitchy and have added the bent stem and wider bars with limited improvement. Recently I rode the bike alone for a about a...
... earthmoon weighing in, here..... (pics below) HELPS TONS!!!! In single bikes I've owned a Vision (which sits you on the front wheel) and test ridden the...
... Relax your grip on the bars and lean back. Ours is very stable when I do that. It's only twitchy when I tighten up. -- Don & Kim Shelby, NC 2002 E2 2001...

If *my* E2 is more stable because the captain's weight is way in back of the front wheel, then a short captain (who would therefore have to slide the seat...
I have an e 2 and it is very stable i can ride it alone with out problem. Do you have the fork going the corect way. If you do it apears to be backward. The...
The fork is the correct, backwards, way. We're both leaning back in our seats, and I try to keep a very light touch on the controls. Our E2 seems very...
Our E2 is also very very sensitive to any stoker movement - and worse the further back you push the seat. By the time the stoker seat is over the hub of the...
... We have ridden an EZ Tandem and uprights. I wouldn't recommend the EZ for other reasons, but it did seem very stable. Tom Gentry Life is too short to ride...
The EZ tandem is an easier ride than the E2 - front wheel is way out in front of you (we had an EZ tandem for a while - HATED it). By the same token, my...
Hi - I do have one; after the company went under I bought one on Ebay, thinking they were going to be hard to come by if anything happened. I also thought...
I bought this FX from a gentleman that didn't ride it but a few times. I thought that I would be able to ride it, but that didn't work out. You see I've had...
My '98 AT Cane Creek shock will not hold air. It pumps up OK, but when I sit, it flattens. The bike is rideable, as there is still a bit of clearance over the...
You can rebuild the air shock or fabricate a piece to take the place of the shock. Make it the same length as your shock is when you are setting on the seat. ...
This is NOT an endorsement, but I bought a rebuild kit off of Ebay from a guy in Orlando for $9. I haven't actually done it yet, I bought it for if I needed...

Wanna see what happens when you hit a 16 inch pothole at 15 mph on your E2? This: Ow. Poor E2 fork! You can see the fork is so bent that it's actually ...
Click here: BikeE-Pair Found this today, if anybody's interested. :o) Looks like a pretty good buy. Lynn "Every day is a new adventure, the fun is in the...
Yikes! I'm glad you're actually ok - that fork looks like you could have been badly hurt. I'm glad one of the kids wasn't on with you. I do still have my E2,...
I'm building up an E2 from a bare frame, and I'm almost there. I was wondering if someone with an E2 would send me a picture of the stokers bottom bracket,...
