There have appeared two interesting videos during the last week. One showing a performance-oriented Metabike Mystique and one a Monster off-road LWB.

The new Metabike Mystique is a new high racer developed by Jonathan Garcia. It will be produced in titanium as well as aluminum version and only as a frameset. It is great to see new high-end two-wheelers being introduced.
Robert Holler and Jonathan Garcia have started a new Youtube project they call Fireside Chat and in the first episode, you can listen to stories about their way to recumbent bikes and other recumbent-related topics.
Jonathan is a body and soul cyclist, a former professional BMX rider and upright bike builder, and now co-owner of a bicycle shop in Portland, OR. His push of modern cycling technologies into the recumbent industry is more than welcome.
Jonathan Garcia and Robert Holler have agreed with Rob Gentry from RBR to take over the American distributorship of the Performer. They also became co-owners of the Metabikes.
The RANS E-Phoenix could be the first model of a purely electric recumbent two-wheeler. The first sample has already seen the light of day and is now awaiting extensive testing and then a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter.
