S & B Recumbent Bikes

Sadly this company is not here anymore. From what I was what I was told from the current resident the old owner passed away two years ago. This review being in 2014 would’ve made that 2012 sadly everything I hear about this gentleman was wonderful and that he was a master builder and just a really good guy Jack Baker, RIP

Jack Baker the B of S&B is a master bike maker. He can be a bit gruff too but it’s worth the act to get to the great products he builds. After I finished the 2006 Arthritis Ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles, I decided that I would look into recumbent bikes.
After a month of research, I found S&B and I was delighted to find that Jack would make a custom bike for less than a manufactured bike. How is that possible? Jack allowed me to ride his SWB USS recumbent bike and I fell in love.
A week later I had my very own screaming yellow SWW USS recumbent bike. It did take a few rides before I felt comfortable on the bike, but it was worth the effort. No more numb hands, no more sore crotch, no more tight shoulders.
SWB = short wheel base
USS = under seat steering
