oVo recumbent tandem UK manufacturer.

Article by; OvO tandems Richard Cresswell After a holiday in Brittany Richard came up with the idea to make a tandem recumbent ? I think he was fed up with waiting for me at the top of the hills. So the oVo was conceived. So now when we go away (2010 we did over 1,000 Km on one trip and in 2011 1685.5 Km) we arrive in the same place at the same time! He went back to basics for the design, steering away from a standard bike shape and replacing it with a sexy curve made from aluminium box section. It separates into two bags which means you can go on Euro star (?if you can get it through the X-ray machine mate we can get it on Euro star? quote from a porter at Euro star) and it does. In fact we went on 11/11 different trains this year through England, France, Holland and Belgium without refusal. The bags weigh 9.5Kg and 13.5Kg (less than the pannier bags did!)
