I find that to likely be the case with most recumbents as well! Hell, some might need TRIPLE butted tubing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
late Posted January 22, 2020 Share #3 Posted January 22, 2020 I think somebody used quad butted. I'd think Alu would be a good material, but thats just a guess. I wanted to get a tandem, but my wife wasn't interested. She's 5'2" and I am 5'9" with big shoulders. She wanted to see where she was going, can't really blame her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

late Posted January 22, 2020 Share #7 Posted January 22, 2020 The RB1 had quad Ishiwata, and that set off something of a quad fad. But I don't remember who made the tandem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kzoo Posted January 22, 2020 Share #17 Posted January 22, 2020 Yes. If you missed it then the problem is obviously with the rest of us and not you. We will all try to do better next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will all try to do better next time. The problem being that OBVIOUSLY two folks will require much stronger tubing, correct? I assume double butted is tougher than single butted, and the non-butted is just painfully awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
