Rans produced the V Rex Sho bike in 1998 and can be classified as a Recumbent bicycle, this exact model costs in american market arround $3,099.99.

This bike is equiped with Front: 20 x 1.125" Continental Grand Prix tires and DT stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Front: HED, Rear: Rolf, 24-hole/16-hole. Rans equiped this exact model with Control Tech V-type brakes, Grip Shift ESP 9.0 levers braking system and Front: Phil Wood, Rear: Rolf hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Rans used 4130 chromoly material for the frame. Rans V-Bar high strength material is used on the handlebar of this V Rex Sho to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Rans Tilt/Adjustable.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano 600 Ultegra, 30/42/54 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to Sachs PC-91 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Rans, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Grip Shift ESP 9.0SL gear shift levers.
