If the question is...list tandems, then there is the Troika and Greenspeed Tandem. ---------------------- "Mads Hilberg" <[email hidden]> wrote in message "]news:[email hidden]...

Hello everybody,
I'm starting to look into recumbent tandems. Can anybody fill me in on who's manufacturing them these days? So far I know about:
BikeE (still a few out there) Barcroft Vision Rans Zox
Are there any more? Does anybody have any comments to make about those above?
Thanks,
-Eben Haber
After 15 years on df tandems we swiched to a Rans Screamer. Tried a Ryan and Double vision,Screamer worked best for us. Only regret, should have changed yrars ago!The one big up grade was White Bro. front shock.Our roads in Western MA.are not that great.I like the idea of front wheel staying in contact with the road.

This may be my all time favorite bike name...a tandem demands some level of cooperation and synchronization, and yet...the Daisy Mayhem! I LOVE IT! "CBrown" <[email hidden]> wrote in message "]news:[email hidden]...

easy racers has a tandem
Organic Engines has the Daisy Mayhem. Like a Screamer but a little lower.
Bob, you shoulda made it to the Human Power Challenge in Portland two weeks ago. The Multi-rider category had: A RANS Screamer tandem with fairing and body sock A pair of Hase Kettweisels, linked Gary Dinsmore's dual-drivetrain, dual-suspended, WYMS copy Tom Traylor's back-to-back carbon fiber tandem Steve Nash's back-to-back lowracer tandem, which we called the "Flying Snowfence"
Interestingly, only one (the RANS) had a "normal" tandem drivetrain. Every other one had seperate drivetrains for each rider.
Whoops- I forgot: Gabe Devault brought up a Sun tandem. People were test-riding it all weekend. A couple of guys even tried navigating it through the autocross course.
I didn't realize Dan had stopped making them. I'll bet mine is from the last batch he made. I got it last summer. I certainly understand about his extensive model line. It was too much to carry them all. Do I have a classic?
I can't wait to see the photos of the bikes at your shindig.
We have 3 recumbent tandems and one df tandem in the garage. It may just come to pass that the original WYMS tandem will be up for sale soon. I am getting old and need to reduce the volume of my accouterment. -- Bill "Pop Pop" Patterson Retired and riding my front drive low racer and our M5 tandem.
