swb inventory

Hi to all! I used to have a Ryan recumbent. It rode smooth and bumps weren't a problem.
I tried another guy's recumbent (swb) and when I hit a small hole I almost got thrown frontwards off the bike!
It's true that the front wheel was a 16". But most recumbents don't have larger than 20" fronts, and I think if I had hit that hole with a 20" the result would have been similar.
I'm looking into a Rans V2. Again, lwb. And 20" front. But I don't think a lwb can very easily throw you over the bars.
Do those of you out there with a swb ever fear hitting a hole?
I know that some models have 26-26 set-up, but that system reminds me of putting my legs over the front of my mtb handlebars--scary! Too high up!
Low racers seem to not give you much view.
Anyone disagree?
Thanks to all for comments, ideas, etc!

(It's a miracle that there are still roadies out there, now that recumbents exist!)

I have a swb 26/26 and my only concern about holes is the possibility of blowing a tire. But then I always had that concern about holes with my old bike too.

I have a Vision R40 SWB and i tell ya, i started to hate this bike when it come to holes in the road! The Rans V2 looks really good! Sadly i cant afford to get this bike so im thinking on geting this one http://www.ransbikes.com/ITRFusionEvolution.htm
Fell in love with this bike
