Holy bottom bracket! I read the whole thread and I think Steamers post says it best. If your not having fun why bother? I own three really great 'wedgie' bikes and one fine recumbent. I mostly ride my Haluzak these days as it is far more enjoyable, read comfortable, than the others. If we ride trails it's on the MTB, tarmac or gravel the recliner is the go to ride. Steep hills require a wedgie. If I had acquired a recumbent years ago I would have those "bent legs" and the wedgies would not have seen as much use. Having worked in sawmills for 30 years, riding dirt bikes and snow skiing for fun has left me a bit beat up to say the least. I ride to share my faith, stay in shape and have way more FUN than I deserve!
