Hey, gang! I have a '96 Vanguard (it's pictured on the group's web site, even). I tweaked the linkage rod the other night, for I think the third time. I got it...

Those rod ends can also be found at Mac Master Carr. I would think the rods may also be found there. I just don't know the size you would need. Mike. _____ ...
Two suggestions for Ryan Vanguard steering tubes. Â The Bicycle Man - http://www.bicycleman.com/Â - A few years ago I talked with owner and he set up a rig to...
Hi again teenrapide- Was this bike acquired in the UK? I seem to recall Dick mentioning that there were some companies that copied his design there... The...

Yes, I know that the Ryan Vanguard is the best ever underseat steering recumbent ever made, and I would never ever want to change anything on it. Â But... I...
Bob, This is "hearsay" vs first hand knowledge, BUT my recollection is that there were a few Slipstreams built with above seat steering.? As I recall, the set...
Having assembled one of those early Slipstreams for a customer at the shop where I was working, I can attest to it being a bit more challenging than the...
