THE EXTREME RECUMBENT MTB - LAID BACK FREERIDE!
Рет қаралды 249,633
Күн бұрынThe extreme recumbent MTB - Laid back freeride! I push the limits of this recumbent bicycle on furious downhill mountain biking trails as fast as possible, before doing wheelies and a stair set of doom! Would you ride this?
I've always wanted to try a recumbent bicycle and today was the day that my dreams became a reality, I found this beauty for sale on Marketplace so I jumped at the opportunity and went and picked it up so I could get this thing out on to the trails as fast as possible! the laid back nature of the bike made it very difficult to maneuver, but after a few goes I was able to jump it, hit downhill trails and even wheelie it, this might be the most fun bicycle i've ever ridden!! So sit down relax and watch the crainess unfold!
I hope you enjoy the video!

I rode one similar to this in North Carolina back in the mid-late 80's. I lost one of my checker-board Vans and my left-nut on a root-section, after some major spillage off a 12ft cliff-face. When we got back to my truck, my lost Van was sitting on the tailgate waiting for me. 😳 My left-nut, recovered.

@@TeamLas3r maybe you can rent a few different models to find out. Recumbents are pretty different in handling and comfort, and everyone has their own liking. What they have in common, is you don't bear down on your wrist so much which is really comfortable. Maintenancewise, they are pretty much bicycles with a very long chain that likes to collect dirt. The protective tubes around the chain (you see them in the video) are good for your pants and good for your chain. For me, I found out, a motorcycle top box is perfect. It gives me storage, improves on my aerodynamics a little, and the extra weight doesn't really matter to me because recumbents are heavy anyways. In fact, a little weight increases the ratio of sprung to unsprung masses, which is good for suspension comfort. And yes, try a full suspension recumbent. I don't want to miss mine.
