Carl,
There is one in Weslake, Village CA. If you want to contact the owner let me know. He is a past CAT2 road racer and would allow a test ride. But as you know, the adaptation of muscle groups to a very open positioned bent takes time to maximize performance potential. As I recall, your experience has been on closed postion bents in the past approximating a upright riding posture. The NoCom taxes heavily the hamstrings and de emphasizes other muscle groups. It took me over 1,000 miles of riding till I really acclimated to the bike. The other NoComs are locasted in the San Fernando Valley, CA at Bentupcycles.com, with 2 in Chicago, IL, 1 in Indianapolis, IN, 2 in the Washington DC area, 1 in the UK, 1 in Denmark, and 1 in Australia. Holiday cheers, Johnny Carl Sundquist wrote: "Johnny NoCom" "Johnny wrote in message Carl, The real issue is, how fast YOU WOULD GO on the NoCom. Most certainly much quicker than any Tim Brummer non faired bike. Holiday cheers, Johnny So where can I try one? |

Bill,
I was referring to "production" bikes available to the general public. I am convinced there is NO production bike faster unfaired bar none. Rob's Haichi is a beautiful bike and really flies but I'd suspect a bit more restrictive in line of sight as all our NoCom riders see the road clearly with little obstruction.

You all are looking at the VK Low racer,Actually we are forgetting
that the Optima Baron is setting all sort of records racing in Europe.

There is nothing better than flying down the road on a splitter bike and passing everything in sight including those old school slowracer antiques and upwrong ass hatchets with slither's of leather up their ass . Holiday Cheers, Johnny |

You have one of those slow ass hatchet hemorrhoid, stick up the ass conventional bicycle things. No artist conception. Its the real deal and faster than any UCI crap http://www.wisil.recumbents.com/wisil/misc/nocom.htm The only thing "conventional" is your brain Jobst. You're in serious need of an overhaul. Spend some time off your "love post" and get with the program. Parke Davis and Co. must love you. Preparation H is on sale at overstock.com. Holiday Cheers, Johnny NoCom I bet you wish you had one too Now what would that be? Jobst's antiquated noggin or perhaps his obscession perched atop a Prep H lubed seat post crammed up the ass. Dude...you seem to have a real obsession with ass, and with the idea of things crammed up them. Perhaps your interest in "dick up" bikes is covering up some gender identity issues? Just a thought... GG I prefer neither as I'll just pedal away passing all them upwrong numbnuts..... Hey, that's another issue of concern. You nosebleeders been taking your Viagra? Holiday cheers, Johnny |

Stopping is a bit rough however. -- Bill (?) Baka |

Hey, if there's one thing I really want to be it's more invisible to car
drivers. Give me that low rider any day. Why I bet that I could get killed inside of a week with that one. "Johnny NoCom" "Johnny wrote in message ...
