Yeah they werent top of the line by any means. But they were an excellent entry level 'bent and being a semi recumbent they would have been more favorable to folks with limited mobility that still wanted to ride something other than a trike.
As for the weight, I'll have to weigh mine but they dont feel like 40+ lbs. My cargo bike weighs 65 lbs fully loaded with tool bag and child carrier, and these 'bents are much lighter. But that may just be me.
My kids took them for an extended test ride today and now want their own 'bents. Dove into the rabbit hole.........
Question: The tires on these things are rated for 45psi front/40 psi rear. At max pressure, they still feel spongy. My cargo bikes run 65psi balloon tires and our hybrids run 60 psi standard tires. Is there a reason the bent tires are so much lower? I'm going to change them out anyways but wanted to know why the pressure would be so low on a bike designed for adult riders.
