Great video. I also replaced the idler on my Stratus XP with a really nice one from T-Cycle. This video makes me wanna get my XP out and ride it around some more. I've got a Ti-Rex in my fleet, and an aluminum Sratus XP. Love em both
@ thanks for replying. Specifically, an “over/under” dual idler for both drive and return. Some have them, most seem to have only the return. Was wondering if there was a design or efficiency improvement ?
yes, like the one on the screamer: ua-cam.com/video/SGGiyF8SoQg/v-deo.html personally I don't think it makes a big difference in efficiency more than the chance of a longer chain dropping out due to road shocks.

Cheers! Glad that you like it. The LWB is really great especially for long road trips! Wow a Ti-Rex, super cool!
Steady man - One hand riding a recumbent.
I have no bike mount for my X4 LoL
Is there a particular reason that I see some LWB bents with an over/under idler ?
do you mean the double idler model?
