Hi tragus,

There were several reasons for me choosing the swb over the lwb but
it mostly came down to storage after it was put together. At the time
we were living in a fairly small house and my recumbent was NOT going
to live in the shed and luckily for me my wife agreed.

With me buying the frameset from Dom I figured that a swb would be
safer to get shipped to the UK in that it would be a slightly smaller
package or at least less long and thin. (I never said they were all
good reasons) :-)

I've settled on the OSS as I feel that it gives me more control over
the bike when I'm stopped at junctions. I really liked the hand
position and the look of the USS but I always felt like I was perched
on something rather than sat on it but since I've changed over its
great. Having said that once I get more accustomed to ridding I may
switch it back for a while just to see.

Regards

Psi
