  • I was wondering, could I change out my 20 inch forks on my Giro 20 with some 26 inch forks to just try the larger wheels??

  • The head tube angles are diffrent, you might need to call Bacchetta to check.

  • can you tell me about your first time in the recumbent bike. here they are very epensive. but soon i will get one

  • I don't know, I don't have one (yet) either. I'd say it probably would help with ache. I'm hopefully gonna try testing some in the near future.

  • Yes,, but you will need a very low gear.

    A number of standard cyclists also sit down and peddel fast. LOL

    Any way ,I was thinking of getting my self such a bike as I can get back ack. Do you think a recumbent will help..

  • you don't need to on a recumbent

  • nice bike,,,, buti would lov too see ride up a hill on it..LOL

    how would he stand out of the sadle?

  • Great bike. Looks like you're having

    a ball.

    One tip :  Your legs are cramped.

    Increase the distance between the seat

    and pedals before you blow your knees

    out.

  • I'm from the UK and owner of a Volae Club. Nice to see Bacchetta's on the go! : )

  • TROY!! Nice job, the test rider looked like a pro...Rich P

  • I've been riding my bachetta with small front wheel for several years. I have no regrets; only new trails to look forward to.

    Stay safe and have fun everyone. This is the future.

  • on the bacchetta forum, the manfactures site, is a posting that details the use of 24" front wheels on the stock for the Giro. check it out.
