Upright Bikes

are Recumbent bikes/trikes faster and easier to ride than Normal bikes.?
I’d like to ask if Recumbent bikes/trikes are faster and easier to ride than Normal upright bikes. I’ve heard they easier to ride up hills. Is this true???
Well let me say first off I Own Three Trikes, A Catrike speed, A Hotmover and A Greenspeed Tandem. To say Trikes are way slower than anything else out there is completely false. All three of my trikes are as fast as a normal road bike. They’re easier to ride up hills than a road bike and I have rode hills on my catrike I couldn’t ride on my Trek 5200. I also rode a Bacchetta Strada for a number of years and it was as fast if not faster than a lot of road bikes along with the Rans Formula V that I ride now.
You really need too keep something in mind when you start talking about Recumbents, they can be purchased just like a normal upright bike. Recumbents can be purchased that are extremely heavy between 35 and 50lbs and a real pain to ride or you can spend a little more money and buy something better and lighter between 20 and 30lbs and faster, it just depends on what you buy.
So to answer your Question are Recumbent bikes/trikes are faster and easier to ride than Normal upright bikes. I’ve heard they easier to ride up hills. Yes they’re faster and as easy to ride as an upright. Enjoy the photos.
