    RANS Velocity V3 Al recumbent for sale

    This aluminum recumbent is the lightest, fastest recumbent I have ever owned. Unfortunately I am shorter than most adult guys so I can just barely get my toes on the ground when stopped. As much as I love to ride it, I really need to let it go before something unfortunate happens. It will accommodate a 36-48” X-seam, and the seat has a clamp that allows infinite adustability within that range. Seat angle is also widely adjustable. I am a proportional 5’4” with a 37” X-seam measurement, in practice I would recommend this bike to someone upwards of at least 5’7”, to 6’4” or so depending on your particular build.

    I am the second owner, and the original owner passed me all the bike’s original paperwork, including the original $3400+ sales receipt. I have installed new tires and tubes, chain, cassette, cables and housings, all having only about 200 miles on them. The seat fabric and base are still in immaculate condition. In short, there is nothing this bike needs but a rider.

    Factory specs list this bike’s weight at ~26lbs. It has a carbon crankset, American Classic 650C wheels front and rear, and a wide range drivetrain.

    Price is $900 firm. I would also consider an in person, even trade for an older Lightning P-38 in small or medium frame; or gen 1 Catrike Trail. I will not ship, but I can provide contacts to local bike shops, and drop off the bike after payment, if you would like to arrange shipping directly with them. Bike is located in Carrollton IL between Alton and Jacksonville. Contact me if we need to make some kind of meeting arrangements.

    This bike is also listed on the local Craigslist. If you PM me I would be happy to provide my email and phone number to answer any questions.
