It took a while to get used to ridding a recumbent but with my hands not hurting it was well worth it. During the covid shut down I couldnt purchase a new Bacchetta so I purchased a used one and rebuilt it. After 5000 miles I purchased the other Corsa and converted it to an Ebike. I wasn't crazy about the 650 wheels but I have learned where to purchase wheels and tires and keep a few sets in reserve. The group I ride with have at least 7 Specialized Ebikes that cost $7000 and a couple Giants and one Scott and a few Trek's. They tested me when I first arrived with Corsa Ebike, but with there bikes topping out at 18 or 28MPH it wasn't much of a race I have more range and a lot more speed. My bike weighs about twice theirs but it didn't cost as much and I can work on mine.</p></blockquote><p></p>
