Maybe one could get a nice lowracer with full fairing for $4000 +
overseas shipping :o) Much faster on the flat than this one, but a
tailbox might be more practical, especially if you have lots of
wind.
Usually you can get a pretty good recumbent for much less than 4k,
so the usual price disadvantage is not there. For $5k you could
even get a velomobile... Though dunno if the original poster would
be interested in recumbents, is Litespeed a road bike?
