Linear Limo 3.0 Recumbent Bike
Linear Recumbent Bikes Celebrate their 25th Anniversary!
1984 ~ 2009
Since 1984 Linear recumbents have been among the most
comfortable and relaxing bicycles available. Their stable handling,
comfortable seat and natural arm position make them a comfortable and
relaxing way to exercise, like a lawn-chair on wheels. After riding a Linear
one first time recumbent rider said, "If my butt had wheels this is what it
would be like!" This bike is not for racers who want to set a speed record.
It is a great bike for folks who want to comfortably get around town and
enjoy low impact, outdoor exercise again.
Most riders who like the idea of a touring recumbent bicycle with Under Seat
Steering (USS) quickly get used to this bike. Its Long Wheel Base (LWB)
makes it stable at high speeds while its linkage steering gives good low
speed maneuverability; "U" turns are accomplished with little effort.
We hand build our frame
in New York starting with seamless 6061-T6 aluminum tubing custom extruded
in our own dies. This frame is rustproof and then painted with durable
powdercoat paint for further durability. Our Linear Limo Long Wheel Base
(LWB) is the lightest LWB Under Seat Steering (USS) in the world and the
only aluminum recumbent bike with Under Seat Steering made in the USA today.
In fact, Entrepreneur magazine named Linear Recumbent as one of the top
“100 companies to watch” in their June 08 issue!
The recumbent design is so comfortable that for most
riders with back problems; hand; wrist; shoulder; neck or crotch problems
the Linear makes cycling not just a possibility but a joy again. I switched
to a recumbent in 1995 because my wrists would no longer tolerate riding my
19 lb carbon fiber road bike. After one ride I never went back.
I was 50 years old and over 230 pounds when I made a trip to The Bicycle Man
to try recumbents.
I found I liked the under seat steering (USS) much
better. I took the Linear on a twenty-mile test ride, liked it and bought
it.
Linear recumbents have been made in America 25 years. For
our 25th Anniversary we will keep the price of the Linear Limo 3.0 the same
as it was in 2007 through March of 2009. In stock and ready to ship all
summer.
They are in stock now, ready to ship and still the same
price as they were in 2007!
