You know what would make that a hot design? To make the steering for the recumbent rider an option. Yeah.

That could be easily accomplished, replace the fork with longer steertube, and use similar steering column as my Vision R40:

Maybe.... The seat placement makes the steering pretty close to "the boys". It could be done, though, you're right. The Pino would be tougher, the head tube is completely under the seat.

Raise the front end a couple of inches or less, put a USS fork attachment may work.
