I just uploaded a new photo showing the kevlar fairing, HED3 rear wheel, cut down carbon cobra seat, etc. I've tried nearly every recumbent out there from european low racers to 18lb carbon wonders and the 25lb faired Stiletto is not only the fastest but also the most comfortable, the safest, produces less fatigue over long distance, and for me the best climber even though it's heavier than some. The low bottom bracket seems to produce power without draining reserves. The bike is "dialed" in and is a pleasure to ride. I ride most of the time without the bodysock and use just the fairing, but if it's cold outside or I want to really hammer then on it goes and it provides protection from the elements unmatched. Oh, the photo is pending approval...it's not a great pic, it was taken with a camera phone. Oh, I have about 3500 miles on this bike this year!
