Welcome to the RBR Recumbent Bike Riders website.

2021 NEWS!

Welcome New Age Bike Works via Rose City Recumbent Cycles, the new USA distributor for Performer Recumbent bikes and trikes! We have been planning this transition for a while, and it is finally here. The guys at Rose City in Portland Oregon will be taking the Performer reins under New Age Bike Works. While sales will eventually transition to a different website, for now please make purchases through this site – all orders and customer service will be handled by Robert and Jonathan at Rose City.

We are all working together to make the transition seamless for the end user, and the guys with NABW are promising some great things in the future for the Performer brand – it is in GOOD hands!

We love Performer!

Here’s the factory, George, and skilled staff.

This new MetaBikes model is simply very cool. The initial Daemons have a wild lava paint job with carbon wheels, carbon seat, carbon cyclocross disc fork and high end components.  Frame kits will be available for those interested playing with their own components. Besides being very versatile, like fitting a wide range of tire and wheel sizes, this bike features a tapered fork for stiffness, an increased wheelbase, a tweaked head tube angle for added stability, and a lower dip in the frame for easier foot to ground reach.

Requires Assembly

Assembly is required for these products. Although we have instructional videos and such, we strongly encourage you to have a local bike shop assemble these bike and trike products for you. Of course there will be a fee from the bike shop to assemble and tune it, but that’s why we try to keep the initial pricing so low. Unless you know how to cut chain, tune derailleurs, perform toe-in adjustment, you should consider having the professionals do it. Unless you are a bike mechanic or experienced working on your own bikes, getting help is the best way to go.

Shipping time varies …

Not all colors or models are in the US so the shipping time will vary. Your items will ship out within 3-4 days of purchase when the product is originating from within the US. If it is being drop shipped from out of the country, trikes usually ship within a week and bikes can take up to 3 WEEK wait. The carriers that we may be use are: U.S. Postal Service (USPS), United Parcel Service (UPS), DHL, or FedEx. Sorry but we cannot ship to P.O. Boxes. Credit card authorization and verification must be received prior to processing the order.

Appointment Only

Since we have moved all Performer and MetaBikes sales across the country to Robert and Jonathan at Rose City Recumbent Cycles in Portland, OR, the sales part of this partnership is now with them. If you wish to visit us we are open by appointment only, at this time. Please contact us at info@rosecityrecumbentcycles.com or 971-337-5685 for appointment setting details.

Dedication to Figure Out the Best Trike for Me

Anyone reading this, please consider a drive to State College to meet Rob and his crew. I drove four hours and I’d do it again in a heartbeat.”

Answered All My Questions

This was my first big purchase online. Your website made things easy to understand. What made me choose to do business with you was the fact that you stayed in contact with me and answered all my questions. You handle things in a professional manner. Thank You.

After seeing a Performer trike here in Springfield, MO I made the decision to buy one; I am very happy I did. I bought my Performer in early Nov. 2019. I put it together immediately and have been riding it every chance I get since. RBR’s service is the very best you can get. Working Rob and Chipper has been a pleasure. All I can say is that I can only echo all of the others that have praised Rob and RBR here. Thanks.     -Chris B.
