Advertiser Spotlight: Family Bike

The Family Cycle


This is the three-wheeled recumbent cycle used by Caribbean and Mediterranean luxury resorts, and preferred for its sturdy frame that comfortably supports two adults and has extra space for two children or several shopping bags, allowing a family of four to enjoy gentle, smooth touring.

Unlike typical tandem bicycles, this single-speed side-by-side cycle has two sets of independent pedals that provide optimal pedal power relative to each pedaler's leg strength, instead of the "one-size-fits-all" pedal cycle circumference which lesser bicycles use.

Each softly padded seat has 2" of temper foam, and can be independently adjusted to fit different pedaler heights for maximum comfort, which the recumbent position gently eases pedalers into an ideal recline for lower back comfort that makes it easier to enjoy longer rides.

The recumbent design also ensures a low center of gravity for reliable and consistent stability through turns, while the omni-directional tiller bar allows either the right or left pedaler to deftly guide the front wheel. The three inflatable tires have high-traction treads supported by solid aluminum spokes, and independent coaster brakes provide confident stops without the need for excessive pushing or leaning.

A removable rear-facing jump seat behind the rear axle accommodates two 80-lb. children or six grocery sacks, and adjustable seat belts ensure young riders sit securely, or shopping bags won't slide or topple. The entire frame is tough 16-gauge steel powder-coated for maximum resistance to the elements, ensuring a lifetime of use. And adjustable, removable vinyl canopy provides shade for all riders. Maximum load is 500 lbs. 64" L x 96" H x 36" W. (210 lbs.) ($150)

Advertiser Spotlight: Conference Room on a BIKE!

I've seen this before. But, this is the first time I'm able to offer this nifty little number for sale. With this baby, imagine 86'ing all those BORING staff meetings.

Perfect for the law firm with way too much CASH on hand! This one has YOUR name on it, Erik!

The Seven-Person Conference Bicycle


Why be satisfied with a bicycle built for two? The unique and easy-to-maneuver ConferenceBike, comfortably seats up to seven people, sitting in a circle and biking together for an unforgettable riding experience.

Originally commissioned exclusively for Hammacher Schlemmer, American artist and inventor Eric Staller has created what he calls "a symbol for community, a tool for bringing people together."

Almost anyone can ride on this distinctive trike, so you can use it for family reunions, summer gatherings, corporate retreats, outdoor education programs, or taking the neighborhood along for a ride. The frame has an ergonomic design making it easy to get on and off, and has seven sets of pedals that propel the trike forward via a patented transmission system. One person steers, while all seven riders are free to pedal, or not, as the bike moves along.

The vehicle is easy to operate, with Porsche-engineered steering, hydraulic brakes, parking brake and lights. Hand-crafted in Germany, and built to last, The ConferenceBike safely transports a combined weight of 1,400 lbs. Red paint finish is a durable baked-on powder-coat; drive-train is completely covered for protection against dust and rain. Easy-to-access maintenance points. Best for riding on hard level surfaces. Maximum speed of 15 mph. Seat heights are adjustable. 4'H x 6'W x 8' L. (400 lbs.)(Please add $650.00 to regular shipping and handling.)

Advertiser Spotlight: Belt-drive bike

Look, ma! NO more greasy bike chains! My kind of bike, fo' shure! This is the three-speed bike that eliminates the rust and mess associated with greasy chain-driven bikes because it employs the same lubrication-free Kevlar belt drive technology used in Harley-Davidson motorcycles since 1980.
