With a short wheelbase, I'd say that it may be mroe difficult to put your feet down quickly, all depending though if you're using clipless pedals. For some bikes though, like the Tour Easy for example because it is a long wheelbase, your feet are relatively close to the ground..

if you do happen to lose control, looks a bit difficult to put your leg down to steady yourself. :(

GunsNTeles:I would use the cruzbike kit and find a full suspension MTB frame. The stock cruzbikes do have front suspension, but it cant travel much, and was not made for offroading.I have a stock cruzbike freerider myself, and i have been thinking about getting the kit and built one more suited for offroad.

Well, the cruz bike is something what I would not use in terrain. The Rans looks much better but I do not like the above seat steering like it is on it. Much better is USS and 26" wheels...

Do you know anything about the cruzbike softrider or rans vivo? Im wanting a good off road recumbent for the money.

I see that you really do not have any experiences with riding in terrain with recumbents. It was so easy....

It is not abozut beating classic MTB. I would never told that recumbents are better in such terrain, BUT, if you have one, you can have a lot of fun in such terrain. And we are usualy faster than 70% of classic MTB riders... |
