For Sale HPVelo Spirit/Street Machine Recumbents

Thinking of selling. If you have an interest in Bents then PM me. In many ways I'm hoping nobody does!

With apologies in advance for showing an interest (never ridden a recumbent, so don't know if they're for me), how much would you be asking for it?

There were two on the Bay, one for 1350 and an all singing & dancing Dt swiss/Rolhof version for near 2K.
Used prices are high as a niche market for them, I think the two on the Bay are at least 10 yrs old.

Having been passed and left in the dust by 2 wheel recumbents I decided they weren't for me so I bought a trike...

Gaz, you are lying down (so comfortable) and downhill or on the flat you don't need a motor. There is a steepish learning curve and you will be looked upon as eccentric by younger men as you thrash them despite not wearing lycra. Any more questions?

Any more questions?

No more, just my first one.

Guess I ought to try one, see what I’m missing out on!

The HP Spirit is a good introduction into recumbents. I had one a few years ago. It is, however, very heavy and powering it would make it more so.
