From the current issue of Wired magazine.
EXPIRED: Recumbents
TIRED: Fixies
WIRED: 29ers

Even the Recumbents that have a bubble fairing?
Yes, unfortunately I think this applies to bubble recumbents as well
The real question is, could a recumbent be fitted with 29-inch tires? If so would that bring recumbents back from the hipster dead?
No, no, a sideways bike is the next wired bike.
