Recumbunt

not much, but apparently you can ride no handed... unlike other recumbunts. after reading a bit about this one it takes a lot of practice to get on, let alone ride.

Is the front wheel drive system the holy grail of recumbent design? There have been several front wheel drive recumbent designs that were based on a more conventional geometry, with a headtube and a steerable front fork. And while the front wheel drive concept is interesting from a technical perspective and may have some merit in practice, I am not sure that the Chinkara represents a step forward for recumbent design. Calling it a creative breakthrough may be more appropriate, as it does demonstrate what is possible in steering geometry. But I think that the Chinkara, and by association the Flevobike front drive concept, probably isn’t a very good choice of bike for novice riders, barring any significant design refinements that may have taken place.
