I am convinced that I want to ride a Dutch recumbent, a dual 26 wheel, and figure I am going to have
to go to Holand to test them, no one here seems to stock them.

So, anybody ahve any suggestions for a complete recumbent dealer, preferably near Amsterdam, where I
have some friends.

Theres one in Amsterdam. Ligfietsvinkel. Check under Occasions where theres a couple of 26 inch used
ones for sale. He also rents them out so you can try one out. http://www.ligfietswinkel.nl/

Have fun Mikael

Stuart, I can't vouch for these guys but when I do get a chance to tour Europe I plan to rent
something rather than go thru the hoo haw of packing my own. They have a great web site.

Right, but they have never had a dual 26 inch available, some low riders which are not my interest.

Thanks everyone for the leads,

That's my local! Great guy, great service. He's also the Rohloff (and Pantour?) agent for the
Netherlands.

There also "de Liggende Hollander" http://www.DLH.ligfiets.net Probably the largest coolection of
bents (In an improbably small "showroom"). They have regular "open days" where you can try out a lot
of bikes, and do a small tour.

No but they can order them, still seems cheaper than flying to Amsterdam
 
Stuart,

the Ligfietswinkel in Amsterdam has NAZCA's model PIONEER for rent, which is the NAZCA's dual 26"
wheel model. If you want to check out the PIONEER, go to NAZCA's website (www.ligfiets.net/nazca),
where you can see its specs. The website of the Ligfietswinkel was mentioned earlier. Good Luck !

I bought an M5 from this guy just outside of Amsterdam. He carries several lines and has some nice
trails near his shop. You can get cheap airfares to Holland in the winter.
