Materiais especiais

Em 1993, a NVHPV promoveu um desafio de design. Esse desafio foi vencido por essa bela cópia baseada na Flevo. Ela foi feita com tubo de alumínio de secção redonda, suspensão traseira de braço único e assento de alumínio.
Essa bicicleta ganhou o Prêmio Alumínio 1994 na categoria bicicletas.

The goal of this project work of Steffen Kanon was to develop the Flevobike Racer further. Inspired by Martin Anderseck's Racertje he created a bike which is compact due to its 20" wheels but can be used as a fully equipped traveling bike.
The headset is a separable fork joint. On the inside it has an elastomer damper consisting of rubber rings. Next to the reduced weight (14.5 kg as shown) the design was important. The bike is made of stainless steel round tubes and with the lighting put into the frame tubes it reminds of Van Moof bikes. The rear fork which is made of a split round tube is a further design element, just like the luggage carrier on which the bike can be parked standing upright.
Further information and drawings for building the bike yourself can be requested from the maker directly.

This is a variation of the Flevo Racer in a classic Randonneur style by frame builder Thomas Becker. He built the bike in two weeks shortly before the Bespoked Framebuilding fair which took place in October 2025 in Dresden / Germany. Being the only recumbent bike at that fair, it won the "Best Bike in Show" award.

Thomas got in touch with the Flevo concept already many years ago but never completed a Flevo before this one. He used the building plans from the Flevofan website for the geometry, bought a second-hand Flevo seat and a discounted suspension strut and started building the bike around it. Among other things it uses 29" wheels with wide tyres, classic Schmidt headlamps that he converted to use LEDs instead of halogen bulps and a choke lever from an old Eastern German motorbike to lock the suspension strut. The rear suspension differs completely from the original Flevo design and uses 1" headsets (yes, we're in classical bikes) as bearings. When the bike was presented at the show, Thomas hadn't done a testride on it yet as he didn't want to damage it when exercising. He plans to do at least a 200 km brevet on it. Just like the authors of the Flevobike Fanclub he's looking forward to finding out if the dimensions of the front fork will be sufficient. If not, we may probably look forward to a beautiful solution.

You can find more pictures of the bike at the builder's blog.
