Assembly
I’ve bought a Recumbent – what's next?
If you have purchased your Recumbent from us, personal setup and adjustment is included in the purchase price.
GreenSpeed Trikes and Bacchetta Bikes are sold fully assembled.
Performer Recumbent Bikes and Trikes can be shipped direct to your door from the factory in Taiwan. South East QLD residents can have their Performer Recumbent shipped to us for assembly (Assembly charge A$180) and local pickup.
If you have purchased your Recumbent elsewhere and are in the South East QLD area, great, we can help.
Assembly and adjustment of an ex-factory Recumbent is $360.
We recommend taking your bike or trike to a bike shop for assembly, however it is not beyond the capability of a competent home mechanic.
I’ve bought a frame kit – what next?
Congratulations – a frame kit is a great way to build your special bike, even better if you have a selection of parts already waiting for a project. Be aware though, building a recumbent from a frame set is likely to be more challenging than assembling a regular bike.
There are some things that just need more thought. It’s worth it though, the effort to make it “just so” is rewarding in the end. Here is an example of what to expect when buying a “frame only” setup (the CHR is one of the harder builds around).
Performer will drop-ship their cycles direct to your door if you are prepared to have a go at assembling the cycle yourself. We recommend taking the bike or trike to a bike shop for assembly, however it is not beyond the capability of a competent home mechanic. The cycles come in one box with a smaller parts box enclosed. There is minimal pre-assembly.
See their website for their latest Assembly Guides for:
Performer also have a YouTube Channel with a large number of "How to assemble" videos.
All Bacchetta cycles must come through your Bacchetta dealer, before being on-shipped to your door. Bacchetta bikes are shipped in a combination of two boxes. One has the frame, fork, and a small parts box, and the other contains the wheels, seat, handle bar assembly. The handle bar setup is fully assembled with shifters, levers, cables, and wrapped with handle bar tape.
The Bacchetta Owners Manual includes information on safety and instructions for your bike’s fit and function. It covers all makes and models of Bacchetta.
