Lightning Recumbents

Human powered vehicles are the fastest of the fast. How fast, well they've been banned from time trials as they were deamed an unfair advantage over upright bikes. Recumbants offer a unique combination of aerodynamics, stability and comfort that's hard to beat. Why lightning?

Lightning has a 16 year history of building record breaking recumbents for cycling enthusiasts around the world. All Lightnings are designed by top aerospace engineers, thus taking cycling out of 100 years of dark age design, and into modern NASA-like engineering. As a result, Lightning bikes have earned over 20 world records. Additionally, to ensure top quality, Lightnings are hand built at our modern facilities in California by skilled craftsman who have decades of experience constructing and operating jet aircraft, space satellites, and large rockets.

Focus Designs SBUs

SBU stands for Self Balancing Unicycle. The SBU is an eclectic unicycle that uses gyroscopes and complex balancing algorithms to balance front to back while the rider is left to balance left to right. The SBU moves forward when you lean forward and stops or moves backward when you lean back. It's a segway without the training wheel, way cooler and at a fraction of the price.
