There has been alot of different speculations about the new BiGHA (And
yes, that is how you correctly type BiGHA), what is the big turnaround on BiGHA? The pricetag? The history of BikeE? I think not. All minor 'irritations' that reroute the opinions of people new to the idea of simply better technology being used efficiently on a practical way of bettering bicycle tourists. What's wrong with reimproving something that could use a more ideal purpose. Ideas are what create success. Anyway, I'm just saying that BiGHA is doing something many dare not to attempt, they are reintroducing success out of a newly formed toolbox of ideas, 'because' it's possible... Nicholas H P.S.

Nick: I think the comments about Bigha involve two areas. First is
price. It is pricey and sells at a cost close to what some of the top end performance bents go for. Second is the impression that the recumbent movement is moving more toward performance (speed, handling, lighter weight, more aerodynamic, etc.) and this is a bike moving in the opposite direction. As a comfort cycle its competition is found in bikes costing thousands of dollars less. They may not have all the googaws and whistles that Bigha does, but for someone entering into bentdom they can buy two to four of the competition for what Bigha costs. I think that all of us bent riders want a bent company to succeed and most of us perceive such a narrow niche for this bike that success is chancy (we have been wrong before). And when a bent company fails then, image wise, the sport is affected. So, while a lot of us wish them well, that doesn't mean we can't espouse our own opinion of their marketing and product. It just seems like a heavy, expensive cushy bent. Hopefully they are considered more like Cadillacs than Packards. Mike S. St. Louis, Mo. Barcroft Virginia Barcroft Columbia RANS Rocket |

There was a BiGHA on eBay auctioned by a charity with no reserve. It sold
for $1,805.00. There were 50 bids with more than half of them from someone bidding as nsacres. There is a Mr. Acres, John I think, who is the chief executive of Bigha. It was listed as a recreational bike rather than as a recumbent. BiGHA seems to go to great lengths not to mention the word recumbent. Maybe that's a good thing. skip |

Hello Lee@BiGHA, guess who ( : Hint: lots of email : ) Yes, they dare to sell a slow heavy comfort bike for the cost of a high performance bike. Selling stuff for twice as much as the nearest competitors is quite an innovation! Have you paid the full $3000.00 price for a Bigha? Lorenzo L.

It was actually listed as a "Go-Kart," something I doubt Bigha had
anything to do with. The charity or eBay was probably responsible for listing (or mis-listing) the bike. I guess I don't get the point of your post. Are you saying that a Bigha is not worth its asking price? Most auction items do not go for true market value, which is why you can often get a great deal on a car, a house or anything else on auction. Only silly personal items, like Princess Diana's toaster will get big bucks. If you're using this charity auction as means of assessing Bigha's value, you are mistaken. Geez, what has this come to? Bigha DONATES a bike to CHARITY and we pick on them? Earth to A.R.B.R.!!!! "skip" wrote in message ... There was a BiGHA on eBay auctioned by a charity with no reserve. It sold for $1,805.00.
