Got to take a demo ride on this today. Very smooth ride even with suspension that was softer than would be called for with someone of my mass.
They're made in Serbia and are known for being good off-road recumbent trikes.
They have a US distributor as well. https://stein-trikes-us.com/about-us

@FotoVorschlag: #FotoVorschlag #Kitschiges: Bin mir nicht sicher, welches der #Velomobile ich am kitschigsten finde:
* Das Weiße mit dem alte Mercedes-Grill,
* Das Orangefarbene mit blauen Punkten,
* oder doch das Pinke?Vermutlich doch das Pinke. 😇
Foto gemacht auf dem Besucherparkplatz der #SPEZI 2025.

This reminds me of a pedal boat. Panelist says it's well built, with great suspension.

If we want to get people out of cars, esp gas cars, old guard macho ableist cycling culture has got to unlearn their ableism and other toxic crap.
If people want a covered bike/trike/quad with e-assist, you should be happy they are going car-light or car-free! Be supportive!
It is a real frontier period in micromobility so there are still things to work out as far as infrastructure, rules, etiquette, etc. but we'll do better if we work together #Spezi2025 #Recumbent #BikeTooter #ClimateChange

They didn't mention an URL for it, but there was an advanced prototype of the Carbike there and they said it was constantly busy on the test track...very popular.
I think we're seeing a rise of enclosed e-bike/trike/quad ideas in order to get folks out of cars, whether they see themselves as "bike people" or not. There's a segment of the population that really wants an all-weather, inexpensive e-vehicle.
I hope the macho ableist "that's cheating" guys shut up. #Spezi2025 #Recumbent #BikeTooter

The panelists are enthusing about the Cixi chainless system that GoLo and others are using. It allows you to pedal in reverse, which is definitely something trike and quad users need due to not having as tight a turning radius as short wheelbase bicycles.
EDIT: Also has automatic shifting and allows use of regenerative braking (if I understand correctly).
-
One thing that I've seen and also heard is that more recumbent trike manufacturers are adding handcycle options to their lines.
If this sticks, it's very good news for disabled riders who need it as the competition will likely bring prices lower. #Recumbent #Accessibility #Spezi2025

TItles in German, captions in no language.
Mostly a slide show with music, though.

Wow, it's so rare to see any cycling shirts/jerseys depicting recumbents! Even rarer to see it with decent art!

YouTube search, like Google search, has been enshittified. So while I've searched specifically for #Spezi2025 videos, YT doesn't always show them to me.
This one just turned up. It's in German, but no captions (even in German).

One bummer about missing #Spezi2025 is that I won't have a place to try out folding recumbent trikes before buying one used or new...
Since I still have to book my flight and there are no direct flights to Tirana, AL from where I am, maybe I should book to a city that has a large recumbent dealership?
Any Central European folks have suggestions of cities with flights to Albania that also have a large recumbent dealership nearby?

#30DaysOfBiking, Day26: Rode from my parents to the center of #Lauchringen (where #SPEZI, an #HPV fair, will start tomorrow) to meet with @x_tof. But before I met him, I ran into what seemed a meetup of https://www.velomobilforum.de/ #recumbent riders at the marketplace, and then independently into 2 French #Brompton riders. I rode only ~7km, but chatted about 1.5 hours in German, English and a bit French ("velo couché", etc. 😎) about bicycles... Looking very forward to the fair this weekend.
