Subject: FS: Rans Nimbus Recumbent. First Reasonalble offer.
I purchased a Rans Nimbus as part of a lot. I have no use for a
recumbent bicycle. I will accept any reasonable offer from the first
person that wants to pick it up from me in the Los angeles area. I dont
even know how to size this beast. It is well used but in working order.
Email me with a phone # if your serious about purchase.

The Rans Nimbus is faster than the ReBike [Slowest Bike in the Known
Universe].

people who make fun of what others ride are showing a lack of emotional
maturity, I have
had a couple of ReBikes and 15 other bents and while the ReBike was heavy,
it was not a lot slower than other bents. It was comfortable over long
rides, was well balanced and when you add a motor it became a nice
alternative to a small MC. Had it been allowed to evolve it would likely be
a nice refined bent by now.

I now have a SRAM 9 Speed Dual Drive ScooterBike that has the same weight,
length and 16/20 wheelset as the ReBike.

Sheesh Joshua, can't a Monkey have fun with a little parody?

FWIW, there's a ReBike ridin' Monkey whose wife used to ride a Rans Nimbus.

Easy there Johnny ReBike (Ed Gin). It may be that this group can only afford
one self parodist. I am the expert in this field and it is essentially all I
have been doing here on ARBR from day one. You do not seem to have a thin
skin which is good as self parodists must have the hide of a rhinoceros in
order to survive on this particular newsgroup. There are just so many
serious types here. I can just see Jon Meinecke scowling at what is
presently taking place on this group.
