The Slyway ULTRA is extremely fast. This is certainly due to the very stiff frame and the aerodynamic riding position.
After extensive testing of virtually every fast recumbent bike available on the market, I am convinced that the Slyway ULTRA is the fastest, most comfortable, and also the most beautiful. I can really only recommend it.

“It is a very good-looking bike and unique in its shape. I like the handling, smooth ride, and eye-level view. I have different recumbent bikes that I ride, when I want an easy and fast ride, ULTRA is my choice. It took a bit of practice to learn how to get off the bike, but after a while it becomes second nature.”
Edward Tan, Phillipines
It’s absolutely the best recumbent that I’ve been on, and I’ve been riding recumbents for 15 years now. It climbs awesome!
A very stiff frame and very responsive, also very comfortable.
Anyone interested in recumbents should check it out!
It’s an awesome bike to ride!
Roy Hall, Texas
You should have seen my face: OMG this is so easy compared to a Front Weel Drive recumbent. The handling and frame compliance over bumps is amazing. Really impressed by the paintwork. Looks amazing!! Superb finish.
James Coxon, United Kingdom
I did a first test drive this morning: I have ridden many recumbent bikes but this trip surpassed everything.
I’m very impressed and will probably set all the Strava records I have so far. At the second exit immediately got a KOM! I have already driven the piece 162 times! The ULTRA simply allows a high-power transmission and is very easy to handle!

Slyway ULTRA is not only a beautiful carbon bike, but also an important development in the world of two-wheelers… the new ULTRA might be the most advanced recumbent bike on the market.

The Slyway ULTRA features a number of innovations: disc brakes, a frame and fork designed to accommodate larger wheels, internal cable routing and the clever positioning of the seat to reduce vibrations. I have already taken part to a few British Human Power Club events and the results were very good. The general bike handling is probably the best of all the high-racers I have ridden.
David L’Hostis, United Kingdom
It is hard to quantify which feature I love the most as I love all the parts make up the whole! I do like the look of the stem and handlebar and the aero cover for the stem. I like the rear dropouts without seat stays to ruin the lines. I like the rakish boom and its derailleur fin. The ULTRA is stupendous, beautifully made, light and fast.
Roy Cheong, Singapore
I have finished the basic assembly and took a first ride: It only took about 2 miles before the wobbles were gone. That is amazing compared with my previous high-racer. I was getting similar speeds at same effort in my neighborhood and I have not even adapted my muscles to the bike, so that is good news.
I found it interesting doing all the assembly as I have never put together a bike from
scratch and there are quite a few details.
William Wightman, Texas
The bike is brilliant. Fast, comfortable and easy to ride. Love the gearing and short
cranks. Climbs and sprints very well. This is the first High Racer I’ve had with a good turning circle.
Climbing is the best I’ve experienced on any other recumbents.
Times for comparable climbs and power are 3-5% less.
John McWhae, Canada
Light as a feather, on climbs I can keep up with cyclists who are fitter than me —
sometimes I even pass them. On the flats and downhills, there’s no contest — it’s a
rocket! Precise lines through downhill corners, easy to handle. An absolute blast!
Enrico Luxardo, Italy
“Yesterday, I was on my first long ride on the ULTRA and while it was as expected fast, what most struck me was how good it was at eliminating “road buzz”. I attribute this to the frame design, being carbon and with a geometry specifically designed to eliminate vibrations.
I prefer the ULTRA, as it is, overall, the best ride feel I have had on any bike.”
Karsten Lieberkind, Denmark
“I believed in the potential of this fantastic bike when it was still just a project. Today I finally realized my dream of tackling the Sellaronda on this bike, and it was an incredible feeling. I’ve never had so much fun! I was impressed by its incredible stability on the descents. I just finished this spectacular ride and can’t wait to do it again.”
Alberto Medeghini, Italy
“I tested the bike on four rides, and I can honestly say I’ve never ridden a recumbent bike as fast (this is my fourth recumbent). I immediately got the feel for it and I was immediately impressed by the ease of riding, the smoothness and the quick relaunch.”
Luigi Bergamaschi, Italy
