When I saw the Armadillo for the first time,
I just thought, that's it,
my dream came finally true.
This is how I imagined an expedition recumbent bike.
A recumbent trike is already great, but a recumbent quad tops it all!
Finally, enough space on a stable platform to take all your expedition equipment with you!
Of course, you still have to keep an eye on the weight, as with any other bike, but the amount of space you have is much greater than with any other conventional bike!
Even a waterproof, lockable box has finally become a reality. When I used to go shopping on my travels, it was always a bad feeling to leave all my equipment out in the open.
For me one of the biggest advantages is that it's a quad recumbent e-bike, the combination of e-motor and Rohloff is perfect!
And as a big plus,
it is a two-wheel drive!

But in order for the bike to be really suitable for travel (expedition style), a lot of things will have to be modified, which will not be easy and will require a lot of time and a lot of money!
But Dennis from Velove,
helps me out with spare parts!
Thanks so much !
