Bents

How about sending in this letter to the Federal Trade Commision and have
uprights banned as unsafe equipment. Just got a EZ-1 at the end of
March and have rode 1300 miles and agree with all this.

/Upritis Nonbentii/ is a newly recognised condition affecting certain
cyclists. The symptoms include:

- wrist pain
- shoulder pain
- neck pain
- back pain
- saddle sores

A number of palliative measures have been produced over the years,
including gel gloves and gel saddles, but these have only ever served
to mask the symptoms, not cure the problem.

New research from the University of Falmouth has shown that a
permanent cure can be effected. There are a few mild side effects,
such as inane grins and the tendency to utter "rebel yells" when
travelling downhill, but those treated in the main report complete
satisfaction (except when climbing long hills) and no return of their
symptoms.

The cure employs /vehiculus humanpower recumbenti/, a
naturally-occuring orthotic isolated and refined by a number of craft
natural remedy companies. By replacing the traditional upwrong bicycle
with one of these devices, and after a short period of adjustment for
the growth of new "bent leg muscless", the rider is left with no
recurrence of former problems.

Say what?!? I.E.Systems resurrected? And the EZ-1 is a trike?!? New
holiday I suppose: July Fools Day :-) I sold my I.E.Systems last
week for $100., then turned around and bought it for $101. Now I can
legally re-sell it if anyone is interested in that wide, heavy, 63
speed Deluxe.

EZ-1 and EZ-Sport are recumbents, 2 wheels, EZ-3 three is a trike, my
LBS was putting one together Friday night.
http://www.easyracers.com is the designer and reseller, Sun(?) bicycles

While Easy Racers does sell the Sun recumbents, the distributor is J&B
Importers <http://www.jbimporters.com/>. Almost every bike shop in the
US has an account with J&B and can order any of the Sun bicycles.

True - I have not put in the attribution have I? Must do that.
