Volae Recumbents

New for 2008 is the new optional ES travel coupling feature for beaking down any of the Volae recumbent. The cost for this upgrade is $650.




Team
You want efficiency and speed? On a Team, the "Gods of Physics" deliver with a vengeance. An ultra-light Oval Concepts JetStream A900 fork and Volae Carbon seat are combined with Velocity Uriel 650C wheels, Truvativ Rouleur Carbon GX 30/39/52t crank and SRAM X.0 components put the Team in a class by itself. Volae's lightweight 4130 CroMoly frame is stiff where you need it, and smooth-riding where you want it. The Team is among the lightest, fastest recumbents in the world and the perfect choice for those who insist on the best. You have to ride it to believe it.

Club
Many riders want a performance bike that offers a huge bang-for-the-buck ratio. The new Club is just that - incredible performance for an incredible price.

Club Disc
Volaes are renowned climbers, but you've still got to go down the backside!

Waterford's impeccable frame welding and alignment add even more confidence and stability to Volae's already capable mountain climber.

Century
Voted Reader's Choice Bike-of-the-Year by BentRiderOnline, the Century continues rocketing forward as our multi-tool bike. Commute, tour or "butt heads" with your bike club buddies. It does it all and does it with style thanks to top end components and disc brakes. Those who want a fast bike, but prefer a lower bottom bracket and seat height compared to hiracers, will love the Century. Keeping with its do-it-all attitude, the Century still has plenty of room for fatter tires and fenders, and more than enough capacity for touring. Need one bike to do it all? This is it.

Prices:
$2295 (Carbon Seat)
$2095 (Mesh Seat)


Tour
Designed to handle cross-state tours; this road-worthy, lightweight and efficient bike is equipped with components chosen to provide trouble-free performance for thousands of miles. AFD (Accessory Friendly Design) engineering allows you to easily add fenders, racks, lights, bags, computer, etc. Starting and stopping is a breeze thanks to the smaller front wheel and lower crankset. Fat tires or skinny tires; the choice is yours. The suspension like feel of the ride comes from the extra comfortable suspended seat design. (No recumbent butt with this seat.) Replace the mesh back seat with a molded seat and you get an even faster bike that fits even smaller riders. Riders less than five feet tall can easily ride this bike with the molded seat.

$1850 (Carbon Seat)
$1650 (Mesh Seat)
