Tuesday, 18 February 2014 04:41

By BRYAN J. BALL Managing Editor      People “in the know” are well aware of the Perfomer brand of recumbent bikes and trikes. More casual riders have probably never heard of them.

Well isn’t this interesting… It appears that John and Jacquie Schlitter of Vite Bikes are coming out with their own line of carbon-fiber highracers.

‘BentRider Online is DEAD! Long Live BentRider!!!

Thursday, 06 February 2014 08:36
