The Speedster Co-Pilot tandem is the bike that Lynn and Patrick, the owners of Tandem Cycle Works, ride. Without question, if we were not shop owners, and we could ride only one tandem, this would be it. On a Speedster Co-Pilot, the world is our oyster. Whether climbing Grand Mesa on Ride the Rockies, or riding Alpe d'Huez at the Tour, the Speedster Co-Pilot has been our trusty steed.
When you’re riding the Speedster you’ll experience Co-Motion's quantifiably better control that other tandem bicycles simply lack. The advanced design and unmatched construction may make you forget you’re on a tandem at all, which may explain why the handling of Co-Motion tandem bikes is often compared to top-quality single bikes. The Speedster steers nimbly and quickly, but better still; the precision of handling Co-Motion tandems for which they are famous equates to better safety as well. This tandem is remarkably lightweight and fun to take up long climbs, yet rock solid and stable on winding descents.
No one wants to invest in a machine as well developed as the Speedster without reaping the aesthetic rewards that Co-Motion owners expect. Super precise TIG welded joints, impeccable finish details, and show-quality custom paint are all yours to enjoy even when you don’t have the time to take a ride.
The Speedster's frame is constructed with exclusive Reynolds air-hardening steel tandem tube package, a Cro-Moly steel unequaled by any steel alloy used by other tandem manufacturers. As on all Co-Motion models, one-piece top and lateral tubes keep the frame straight and strong with no interruptions at the center joints. These zonally-butted tubes, made to their stringent specifications, produce a lighter tandem frameset than any other Cro-Moly tubing. The result is that the Speedster delivers a ride that is crisp and comfortable at the same time.
A roomy stoker compartment, simple sizing system, and numerous stem selections for captain and stoker make a great fitting tandem bike a reality for just about any team. The Speedster's high level of component specifications will leave you completely satisfied that you own one of the best tandem bicycles the world has to offer. And the good news is: you’ll be absolutely right.
