There is nothing wrong with home builts, some of the best machines around
started as home builts, but conversely it is refreshing to see a recumbent
displaying such a together approach as the BiGHA, it sends messages out to
the non bent world that these machines are not backyard specials.

Thank you by your answer and opinion! That's just I want to know. I don't
agree with your opinion, but I respect your right. I believe that we may
expose our ideas without hurt one each other.

All the best

So why did you imply that you did have one in this post?:

I guess some people just can't be trusted.


You see one of those people in the mirror every morning.


Of course you don't have a
Bigha, who with any real recumbent experiences would pay $3000.00 for a
slow heavy comfort bike?

I didn't lose any money when many of the same people who now run Bigha
drove BikeE into the ground and lied right here in this newsgroup about
what was happening. But many of their suppliers and dealers did lose
significant amounts of money. Maybe that's why they aren't selling
Bighas though dealers, no dealer will trust them.

Why do you think that I hate Bigha? It looks like it might be a nice
$1500 bike. I just wonder who would pay twice that much for one.
Obviously not you, so why do you love them so much?


In a flat area weight is not an issue, if I wanted a city bike and actually
had a left knee that allowed me to ride a two wheeler then I would happily
spend $3000 on one, it has a lot of nice features and actually looks like it
has been designed, unlike most recumbents that have more than a hint of
being home built about them.


I asked "Have you paid the full $3000.00 price for a Bigha?" and people
danced around the answer so I said "And still no answer..." Thereupon
you responded "Actually more than one person said yes, including me, but
you used selective recognition to ignore those posts." Clearly you were
claiming that you bought one and clearly it was an attempt to deceive.
You seems to have a selective recognition of truth. You make excuses for
why you haven't bought a Bigha, and you would not be attempting to
deceive us again, would you? But for what ever reason, you have not
bought one. So I ask again, who with any real recumbent experience has
paid the full retail $3000.00 for this slow heavy comfort bike? There is
no need for you to get rude and offensive, just answer the question.

I was responding to your previous question when you said "Who would pay
$3000 for a BiGHA".

So clearly I was not attempting to deceive anyone.

Why are you getting so rude, offensive and defensive over a bike you
don't even own? And would you buy a Bigha? Clearly you will not. You
don't need to lie about it or make excuses. Just try the truth.

The questions remains: Who with any real recumbent experience would pay
the full retail $3000.00 for this slow heavy comfort bike?

Lorenzo:

At this point in time I think you can safely assume that in so far as this
newsgroup goes the answer to your question is NO. Apparently no one posting
to a.r.b.r. has paid $3000 for a BiGHA. I believe the closest to a yes
answer you had was from Ed Wong saying he would buy one for $3000.00 if he
had the money. I'm not sure why the others won't give you a straight
answer, but I can tell you that I haven't purchased one. If I had $3000.00
to spend (not) on a new CLWB bike my personal preference (for whatever
that's worth) would be for a Tailwind and $2000.00 in change. Nevertheless
I think it's good for people to have as many choices and price ranges
available to them as possible. That's what's great about free enterprise.

Have you got a link to a picture? And do you think I could cut the 20" ones
down to fit my 16" front wheels?
