Visit to Recumbent Factory
Call me a glutton for punishment if you will, but....
I have scheduled a visit to TW Bents in Taichung Taiwan for Wed, April 14, 2004. I have permission to photograph their entire operation and create a detailed report for my website. I'm sure that not many readers of this newgroup have the opportunity to visit Taichung which is home to most of the world's bicycle production, featuring industry leaders such as Giant and Merida. TW-Bents Manager, Mr. Kevin Kao has kindly offered to be my host for the day and answer all my questions with regard to their production process and designs. Mr. Kao also explained to me that TW-Bents is not as large as Giant, and was rather apologetic about my visiting his humble factory (he has no idea that I'm going to hit him up with a new design idea for recumbent USS and also a die-cast A-380/T6 tadpole bodypan that I have in the works - but that's another story, and at least 2 more new patents)! I will entertain any serious questions for Mr. Kao. Please post them here or send them to my email address. I will check for posts before i depart on Wed morning. Taiwan is now exactly 12 hours ahead of US EDT, or UTC +8. Michael J.
