Rans Response bike review

Rans produced the Response bike in 1995 and can be classified as a Recumbent bicycle, this exact model costs in american market arround $1,375.00.
Rans Recumbent Response can be found in a few colors, among these colors Black, custom, dark blue, green and red .
This bike is equiped with Front: 20 x 1 3/8" Kenda tires and Stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Front: Araya M-15, Rear: Araya SP-30, 36-hole. Rans equiped this exact model with Dia-Compe 730N brakes, Tektro RBP-301 levers braking system and Shimano Alivio hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Rans used 4130 chromoly material for the frame. Rans C-Bar high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Response to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of SR Kamakiri.
For the smoothest biking experience Suntour XC Comp, 24/36/46 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to KMC HP-20 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Rans, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Grip Shift SRT-600 gear shift levers.
