Looks like it should generate a vapor trail, all right...

Hmmm. I guess it really **IS** faster than a Re-Bike or a No-Com!
Nice to get some real perspective!

I do not believe either bicycle has a hyphen in the name, though both
have an internal capital letter. I suspect if one took the fairing off
a Varna Diablo II it would still be faster than a ReBike [1] but slower
than a NoCom.

[1] My spell checker wants to change "ReBike" to "Rebuke" -
hmmm...

(Hi Earl)

Since you mention Earl, I must take the opportunity to mention that he
put the "T-bar" and RANS Flip-It [TM] on my red Sunset SS0003 [1],
which I find preferable to the stock "C" bars that came on most
Sunsets. [2]

[1] For the previous owner. [3]
[2] However, orange SS0001 had a fixed T-bar arrangement at CABDA 2000
where I first rode a Sunset.
[3] Light Purple SS0006 has the stock "C-bar".

And the unofficial record for the fastest *crash* in an HPV:
http://www.ohpv.org/albums/bm2003/atspeed/photos/photo_10.html

Fastest /unpaced/ crash. In 1952, one Jose Meiffert, trying to increase his
record of 109.1 mph on a dilapidated track crashed at almost 90 mph,
tumbling and skidding for over 115 metres and coming to rest "a quivering
mass of flesh". He survived the five fractures in his skull and what must
have been a very severe case of gravel rash by recuperating for 10 years in
a Trappist Monastery. He resumed his record breaking career in 1962 riding
behind a Mercedes-Benz race car to attain 127.243 mph on an upright bike
equiped with a 225 inch gear. In his pocket he carried the following note:
"In case of fatal accident, I beg of the spectators not to feel sorry for
me. I am a poor man, an orphan since the age of eleven, and I have suffered
much. Death holds no terror for me. This record attempt is my way of
expressing myself. If the doctor's can do no more for me, please bury me by
the side of the road where I have fallen."

(Hi Earl)

[...]

If you have a name like Earl, you do not need any other names.

Your banter with this moron was the low point of ARBR. "Hi Earl" indeed! We
do not want that imbecile back here with his one liner remarks about going
fast on his stupid bike. It must have been your good deed for the day to
humor him, but the rest of the group had to suffer as a result. Try not to
be such an idiot yourself, why don't you?

This is how Sherman got be the most prolific poster to ARBR, until I knocked
him off his pedestal. But I am not guilty of these cheap one liners. I am
prolix if nothing else. Any message of mine will invariably consist of at
least one well developed paragraph that others can read with enjoyment and
enlightenment. One liners are ever the hallmark of imbeciles.

Here is a bike; the "Naked Diablo" [1], that Sam Whittingham built that
duplicates the riding position of the Varna Diablo. I would be
extremely surprised if the "Naked Diablo" was faster than the Velokraft
NoCom.
