    Velomobile looks like fun but they cost so much. Seems like they are typically custom built and use carbon fibre. So several thousand or more. Meanwhile my bike was like £600.

      I wonder if you could produce fairing kits for common recumbent bikes and split the difference.

        I think it’s because they are made in such small volumes. Shame, as they look cool.
