Burley produced the Taiko bike in 2002 and can be classified as a Recumbent bicycle, this exact model costs in american market arround $1,699.00.Burley Recumbent Taiko can be found in one single color which is Red.
This bike is equiped with Front: 20 x 1.75" Primo Comet tires and DT stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Weinmann Zac 19, 32-hole. Burley equiped this exact model with Shimano Deore V-Brake brakes, Shimano Deore levers braking system and Shimano Deore LX hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Burley used Chromoly material for the frame. Burley SupaLite Arc high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Taiko to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Aluminum.
