Sweet looking design. I'd be real interested when that goes into production.

Production molds are ready. That's the first seat off of the production molds - i.e. the "test mold" seat. Big issue with going into production is liability insurance. Right now, the best I've been able to find would add about another $200 to each seat. :^( Big damper.

Just got the new custom seatfoam order in! Just in time to try it out at the Mid-Altantic with Jaq and John.

At the Trail to Trail race that Madison and I won a little over a week ago, everyone was calling it "that Ferrari bike". :^) (Now maybe back to your regularly scheduled thread - sorry for hi-jacking it)

Thanks

for all the info, both on topic and off!!! Grin

All well worth the read. I went down to Easystreet Recumbents on Saturday and rode a P38( truely amazing) and a Strada which I had riden back in the spring. I have been watching Craigslist daily, but nothing new close to Austin that interested me.

Then, on Sunday morning, listed in the Western Rockies of Colorado bike section was a Strada in Cedar Park, TX. Very strange. I live in Cedar Park!!!! It was only about 4 miles from my house. So I called, rode and bought!!!! Smiley

I forgot to ask why it was in the CO section and he lives in TX, but that probably worked to my advantage in that it was not found by anyone else local!!!!

Went for the first ride yesterday evening. Nice ride I just need to make sure the tires are fully inflated and I miss rocks. I haven't had such small tires in a while and have to be more cautious than on the Seavo with the 26 inchers!!!! So I got to change my first flat on the bike also!!!!

It ride a whole bunch better than my ride on Saturday. My wife it out of town so I took the Seavo for a 24 mile ride by myself!!!! Yesterday I was atleast 20 lbs lighter!!!
