Escribo desde Girona ( Catalonia), (Spain).
Que están esperando para comercializar esta estupenda máquina ??
Aquí en España nadie sabe decirme nada, nadie la conoce o no quieren saber nada, no interesa, debe ser el “Sistema”.
Ya esta bién de tanto vehículo motorizado para trayectos cortos con grandes cilindradas y ostentosas carrocerias !!. Soy ciclista desde hace muchos años, pero ahora por problemas de cervicales no puedo montar en una bicicleta convencional. Sería estupendo tener una bicicleta como esta es perfecta: diseño, comodidad, seguridad y exclusividad. Grácias señor Torkel Döhmers y perdone no poder escribir en inglés.

Saludos y enhorabuena.

Not cool. Bicycles are fun because there is a freedom about being on two wheels and leaning around corners. Tricycles are just gay – not that there’s anything wrong with that.

I think the ThisWay design is fantastic and can only be improved. The sooner it goes into production the better. I ride a Pivot Mach 429 – a serious bike.

I also believe the ThisWay is a seriously practical and comfortable bike. I want one. Cities should be full of these (and perhaps the hybrid electric versions too). (I’m wondering if that hatch at the bottom of the frame is a parking stand, or just service access? You kind of want this thing to be able to stand up to park it without an ugly stand so if it’s hidden away that’s cool.)

I must admit I’ve never like the long chains and exposed drivetrains of most current recumbents, and apart from the very cruisy idea of riding around properly seated, there are a few reasons why I wouldn’t buy any of the current production designs, but this monocoque frame with low maintenance belt drive and automatic gearing seals the deal – awesome!

Someone please make this thing and send it THIS WAY to Australia!

Those red triangles are ugly.
Torkel’s design IS an evolution. I love that design. I want one!
