Profile: The recumbent for hardcore roadies: Light, fast and proof that recumbents can climb quickly.
Space Frame: Being on the short list of lightweight recumbents is an accomplishment in itself. The P-38's space-frame design keeps it light, while the lanky design (for a short wheelbase) keeps the rear weight balanced, increasing stability at speed. The P-38 has competed in just about every race recumbents can legally enter, and it owns a brace of records. If you are looking for high-end road bike feel and performance, check out the P-38
