Recumbents are outrageously overpriced. The very small market for them

a recumbent for a few hundred dollars instead of the usual thousand
dollars
or so.

"They" have, from WalMart even.

Online only, you can avoid having to pay shipping if you have it drop
shipped to your local Wally world store.


That is amazing alright! I never thought I would live long enough to see it.

It is not the best design, but still it is not bad. I believe Easy Racers
were making this design a few years ago.

Well, at least now you know why I think Wal-Mart is the greatest store in
the world. There is no reason why recumbents should be so expensive. $275 is
a good price point for a recumbent.
