Recumbent bikes have big old wide seats and riders lie back like in a recliner chair… but if your knees are shot, it’s a great alternative to a normal bicycle.

“This Way” is a concept from Torkel Dohmers and is built of flax fiber and carbon fiber with a solar roof, both for the electrical assist power and to keep the bird poop off your head.

It has built-in LED lights front and rear(powered by its rooftop solar panel), and also a "luggage connector" at the rear that you can plug-in your luggage(briefcase, helmet box or rack for shopping bags). "A comfortable pedal powered bicycle with weather protection. Emphasis is on automotive qualities in the design, to attract non-cyclists who currently rely on cars and motorcycles.
