Volae recumbent bikes are designed for riders that want comfort but do not want to give up on performance.
It’s fairly easy to make a recumbent bike that’s fast down hill and it’s not too tough to make a recumbent
bicycle fast on flat terrain. Making a recumbent that climbs well is another story all together.
A well designed recumbent bike should not only be fast on flat terrain and downhill but should also do well
when climbing hills. All Volae recumbent bikes are designed with climbing in mind. Rolf loves to ride in
the Mississippi River bluffs in Western Wisconsin and he wanted a recumbent bicycle that would get him up
the steepest hills in that area. The frame, seat stays, seat, chain management and steering geometry are
all designed to give you a recumbent bicycle that performs well when climbing.

"It performed flawlessly—not even a flat. What a great bike. Thanks!"
