My super bike vision recumbent. I love this
set up. Thanks for your help. I live in central

I do petal all the time,
helps keep me in
shape. I'll be 75 yrs march
09. I cruise
between 30 & 35 mph.
I carry 2-35 oz
vera juice bottles for
my extra gas. Tanaka
gas caps fit. Must cut
1/4th " off top
of bottle neck. I used
1 1/2" aluminum
straps bend to L shape
to hold bottles up
& 3/4 al. straps bend
around bottle to
hold them in. Bend 1/8
threaded rod around
frame, drill 2 holes to
hold bottle holders
to frame. Drill 2 top holes,
I used wire
ties to hold top to frame.
I used water bottle
insulators to protect bottles.

I built a platform to hold my pack, tool
exc. which is secure to my seat, and the
engine is secured to the platform. With this
long wheel base she really handles nice.
I have seen 42 mph down 6% grades. I'm really
having a lot of fun with this bike.
