ABSTRACT:
A recumbent bicycle includes a seat with a back rest and pedals forwardly of the seat so that reaction from the pedals can be communicated by the rider into the back rest of the seat. A pair of levers immediately in front of the seat can be operated in reciprocal movement to add to the propulsion effort of the pedals with the levers communicating to the chain wheel of the pedals through connecting levers and a further chain wheel. Steering movement is obtained by a common pivotal movement of the levers to the left or to the right about a longitudinal horizontal axis with the common movement of the levers being communicated to the front wheel by a system of levers.
