Default Koosah

Hello all! I am new to this forum. I have been riding a homebuilt for a year now, and I am about to purchase a Burley Koosah. I was wondering if anyone had any comments about it. Thanks

This is not an overly-active list. You might have to give them more than four hours to respond. I don't have a Burley so I don't feel qualified to give any opinions on it other than to observe that most Burley owners seem to be happy with their bikes.

It has been five days , not four hours. I guess I need to find a list that is more active. Thanks

Oops, I didn't read that deeply into the time/date tag! You could try BROL; although at the moment, their server is down for unscheduled disk replacement. For the interim, Bike Forums seems to be the defacto backup. Unfortunately, ARBR still seems to be a wasteland.

Did you ever get your Koosah??? If so how do you like it?? We're considering that model.

I went with the Canto. I liked the veristility of the mwb to swb conversion. Excellent ride, in either configuration.

Hi.I just picked up a koosah a couple days ago.I'm new to recumbents so dont have that much to compare it to.One thing for sure,this thing is a show stopper.I mean EVERBODY wants to talk about it.Kind of annoying really,i no more than get up a head of steam and have to stop for yet another BS session .I felt very comfortable right away and all speeds are higher.WAY more comfortable than my road bike.Mialage has gone way up.I'm older and have been having a hellava time with wrists and back while on road bike.Those problems are gone.Now the down side.Very crappy shifting.Wants to skip a lot and does not have a positive shifting feel.Some of the paint has a dull look thats not responding to wax.Those are the only things that i see right now.Overall i really like this machine and plan on upgrading the compononts somewhere down the road.I plan to ride this one for a good long time.
