Rans V-Rex bike review

Rans produced the V-Rex bike in 2001 and can be classified as a Recumbent bicycle, this exact model costs in american market arround $1,595.00.
V-Rex bike is available in many sizes such as 39 std (inches) and 41 XL (inches).
Rans Recumbent V-Rex can be found in one single color which is Blue.
This bike is equiped with Front: 20 x 1.75" Primo Comet tires and Sha-Dar stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Alex AL-DA16, 36-hole. Rans equiped this exact model with SRAM 9.0 brakes, SRAM 9.0 levers braking system and Shimano Deore LX hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Rans used 4130 chromoly material for the frame. RANS Flip-It high strength material is used on the handlebar of this V-Rex to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of RANS Aluminum.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano 105, 30/42/52 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to KMC Z9000 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Rans, the whole system is connected to a high reliability SRAM 9.0 gear shift levers.
