Recumbents also used to be far more expensive than standard bicycles (although now there's a lot of expensive standard bicycles) so an older demographic isn't surprising.
Recumbents are also lower in height and a lot easier on people's joints so are particularly good for people who have medical issues or mobility impairments. So, again, your demographics aren't surprising.
- samstave 4y agoYeah, no slight on recumbents! I want one. Oh, and the other demo is 100% of them are wearing 'Gardening hats' (A hat you tend to see people gardening in...)
