Fastest Recumbent Bike Vs Motorbike - Which Will Win?
Is aero any match for an engine? Can leg power triumph over petrol power? We’ve got our hands on one of the world’s fastest bicycles and have put it head-to-head with a 50cc moped in a series of challenges. This faired recumbent is a pure aero pedalling machine with a carbon fibre shell and a monster 85-tooth chainring! What’s faster: recumbent or scooter?
