We live in Stow which is why we probably missed you on your return journey. </p> <p>You can fairly motor on the flat and it's a monster on the downhills, but if you'd seen us puggling up the Granites into a nasty headwind we were going a fair bit slower! It weighs over 30KG so it requires some grunt on the hills.</p> <p>We've had it 2 years now and I like to say in terms of amount of fun per pound spent, it's probably the best value investment we've ever made. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19756#post-311628 Mon, 29 Jul 2019 18:20:45 +0000 LaidBack 311628@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Nazca Quetzal owned by @nobrakes</p> <p><a href="https://bike.scot/bikes/nazca-quetzal/" rel="nofollow">https://bike.scot/bikes/nazca-quetzal/</a></p> <p>Similar to our demo at shop and the same model we took to Scandinavia for 16 days last year. Genuinely made in Europe with frame fabricated in Alten NL.<br /> Just sold another one a few weeks ago.</p> <p>Another Edinburgh couple used one last year to cross USA.<br /> <a href="https://rollingrolling.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow">https://rollingrolling.wordpress.com/</a></p> <p>It's a brilliant design - test rides on the back welcome. No tandem or recumbent experience required. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19756#post-311624 Mon, 29 Jul 2019 16:21:46 +0000 splitshift 311624@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Spotted on the A7 heading south yesterday, sun the 28th .
