On 5th November I was lucky to test briefly the MetaPhysic recumbent bicycle at the Barcelona-Sitges ride. I send you some descriptions and sensations from this test since I found it's a worthy product:
It's a short recumbent bicycle, very short, has nothing in excess and lacks nothing, with 700c wheels, light (a bit over 10 kgs) combining aluminium and carbon parts, it's excellent to navigate on the asphalt. A recumbent with sportive blood without being low. Quality is like any manufacturer from the north of Europe. The sensation is like there is no bicycle, is it a metaphysic bike? I say that because the frame is almost not visible while riding... like entering in a fusion homo-machine state.
Ideal to retire definitely the traditional road bicycle and change it for the MetaPhysic.
Marc Xicola is cycling enthusiast an active difusor of recumbent cycling, particularly over Internet.
