There are many European recumbents and upright bikes that are faster than any of the bikes in our product line. Team "Killer B" and I recently got our asses handed to us at a race in Texas. I learned a tough lesson that day that no one on the Killer B paceline will ever catch a group of CAT 1/2 racers. There are faster bikes out there than our top of the line TiAero.

For what its worth Spanky, our product line is faster than most of the recumbents advertised at BROL except the European manufactured lowracers. Unfortunately the consumer novelty has worn off for us Spanky. By next year our tiAero prices will plummet when the market is flooded with used tiAeros that recumbent riders no longer want. We are now focusing on heavy, cheap and slow recumbents to be sold at WalMart.

If you want to go fast buy a used tiAero Spanky. If you want to go exceptionally fast buy a TREK upright bike or a European lowracer. Those bikes are the fastest bikes ever made.

You bet! If you are not out there trying to go as fast as possible on your
bike, then you are a slacker and should not be riding a bike in the first
place. Better yet, you should go home and put a bullet through your thick
head, thereby cleansing the world of your slow ass.

Hey, if you can't buy whatever it is you think you need at Wal-Mart, then
you don't need it. Stay away from bike shops. They will want to sell you
something that you could possibly be fast on if you weren't such a lazy ass
to begin with. I say go out to Wal-Mart and get a bike there that will suit
you perfectly. Whatever you do, do not ever buy anything made out of
titanium and/or labeled Aero. I mean, who do you think you are anyway? Lance
Armstrong?
