This is the newest type of bike to the Calfee stable. The classic long wheelbase recumbent is upgraded with the use of carbon fiber, suspension and an improved steering geometry. Every other small part has been refined and modernized, bringing the recumbent into the 21st century.
Available as a touring bike, fast recreational or full-on race bike. 19 to 25 pounds depending on component choices. Most people buy the frameset and build it up with their choice of components but we have selected two standard component packages that work very well:

Some customer feedback:
"Here's my first impressions after 3 days of riding the Stiletto. It's in the 40s here and blowing pretty hard but I've managed to get in 40miles or so:
My main conclusion - and this is from someone who spent his career involved with product development and marketing - is that is your website is far too modest in its comments about the Stiletto. I can only assume you have all the business you can handle so you don't want to let too many people know just how good this bike is.
I've read a few rave posts on BROL and they are entirely justified. I've never ridden a recumbent that handles and climbs so well and I'm pretty certain that once I get a few more miles under my belt I'll ride my regular routes every bit as quickly as on my Dragonfly."
