I'm reasonably certain that even recumbents come in different sizes.

Show me on this model bike where the carbon fiber touched you ....
People are Weird. I live in a word with massive injustice based on imaginary lines, favorable skin tones (which differ in different locales,) family history, accent and language, economic status, and gender where people will steal rather than earn and kill for just about any reason, where women often have to be careful never to be alone and men think they are stupid for fearing---except the guys who prey on women who they catch out and alone ..... where some people are so rich they have to pay other rich people to invent ways to get richer by changing laws, and at the same time, some people are so poor they literally have to pick through trash to find food. I live in a world where rich people can pay money to buy organs from poor people who cannot even afford health care ... a world in which one country kills political prisoners to order to supply organs for transplant ... a country where some governments are actually organized drug gangs, and some which use their armies to invade other countries which have done nothing aggressive.
And for some folks the big issue is manufacturing materials.
Yeah, I would definitely join a mob going out to lynch some carbon fiber ... that stuff is the bane of humanity ... everywhere here on Flat Earth.
This is not a denigrating diatribe ... it is parody done for humor's sake .... right?

I love my peanut butter bikes but they really don't spread well on bread.
