Thought I'd share some photos of a Cruzbike Conversion kit recumbent I built in 2014.
I was looking for:
1. Foldable - for use on public transport
2. Rear suspension - for comfort
3. Internal gear hub - for shifting at traffic lights
The donor bike was a Flamingo London NX7. It folded (and still does fold) like a Brompton and comes with a Shimano Nexus 7 speed IGH.
Here are some photos taken today. The bike is nearly 5 years old and has seen a fair amount of miles. The facial hair, on the other hand, is quite new.
