This is one of the new generation of "Compact Long Wheel Base" (CLWB) recumbents that have become popular in the last few years. Designer Miles Kingsbery of England placed the bike's front wheel nearly under the crank set, allowing for a shorter overall length than a Long Wheel Base (LWB), and a "slower" steering than a Short Wheel Base (SWB) recumbent. It also features a nose section and a tail section. With the addition of fabric sides this vehicle becomes almost a fully faired machine.
