For those of you who thought their cycling days were over due to physical problems or age agenda you have a reason to smile! Not exactly your regular upright cycle, but what sure is in store for you is much more than that. Here is the all new and improved recumbent cycle! Unlike the two-wheeled recumbents, the lightweight ‘Greenspeed Trike’ gets going from the first push of pedal and is conveniently much lower to the ground giving it a stable and ready-to-ride position. The GT3 weighs merely 37.5 lbs. and what’s more, it’s portable and could be easily folded up for transportation.

So if your middle-age is giving you knee/neck/back problems or if you’re older and/or fairly overweight for a regular bike, Ta Da! Greenspeed Trike is all you need. It’s faster and infinitely sporty and maneuverable and the recumbent feature lets you enjoy your surroundings much more than on regular cycles.

Get retro and go back to the era of ’50s and ’60s with the Beach Cruiser. But, you don’t have to compromise the technology to go back to your parent’s age. Trust James Perse for he is here to give you your very own cruiser with a vintage feel but  modern features. Each machine is custom build for you ( or your loved one!) and can serve as the perfect reminder of your first beach night out together.

If you are one of those fussy ones, here I give a complete list of the features to make you believe that I am not lying when I say that this cruiser is the thing to go for. It has a Hydroform steel frame, billet aluminum stem, hand-aged leather seat and grips, extra wide 2″ rims and 2.125″ tires.

If you still ask me, “what else?”, I can give you the shocker by telling you that each James Perse Cruiser is custom built and includes a limited edition serial number, just for you.

Feeling special, eh?
