Thanks Maxarya, for a great bike at a great price. Bicycling never felt this good! For the past 10 years I have been riding a bicycle to work every day. It seems the older I get the more this activity hurts. For the past few years I have suffered with a sore back, leg cramps, butt cramps and sore wrists. It was becoming too painful to ride to work. I tried everything, I installed a suspension seat post, a wide comfort seat, suspension handlebar post and every "comfort option" I could find that would fit on my Cannondale Hybrid. I ended up with a very expensive and still uncomfortable bike. I had just about given up riding even though it was still my favourite form of relaxation. Then I heard about a new Canadian built recumbent from Maxarya. After a great deal of investigating I bought a Maxarya Ray1. I was not convinced that a recumbent was going to help with all my body aches, until my first ride. I am now back to 20 miles per day after not riding at all this last summer and I am enjoying riding as much as when I was a teenager. The Maxarya Ray-1 is a perfect balance, the seating position is comfortable and upright, your legs are in a very natural position, there are no pressure points to cause all those nagging aches and pains. The bike is comfortable, good looking and just the right mix of quality components and excellent engineering and design. A perfect balance of form and function without breaking the bank! The quality of the components and the flawless construction of the frame suggests that this bike would be in the top cost category of recumbents, yet it comes right in at a price competitive with regular bikes and it beats most recumbents by hundreds of dollars. The only problem I have with my Ray-1 is my wife! She tried it out the other day and now I have to fight to see who gets to use the Maxarya and who gets stuck with the Cannondale.
