Lightning P-38
Have a look at the legendary Lightning P-38 recumbent bike. One look at the P38 is all you need to see why the Lightning P-38 is the company's flagship recumbent bicycle. 14 years of refinements and race-winning experience brings the P38 to its current state of development. With its stiff, efficient and patented space-type frame the Lightning P38 weighs in at just 24-25 pounds; making it one of the lightest recumbent bikes made. The innovative design of the Lightning P38 offers comfort, safety, and speed many times greater than conventional recumbent bikes. Experience the pure cycling enjoyment of riding your own Lightning P38. If you're ready for the best, a Lightning P-38 awaits you.
Bicycling Magazine dubbed its latest review of the Lightning P-38 "A recumbent that can climb!" A month of acclimation to the P38 and you'll match or exceed your previous performance on an upright. The key is training. Recumbent bikes use slightly different muscles than an upright bike.
