A recumbent bicycle is a bicycle which places the rider in a supine or semi-supine position (rarely, in a prone position). Recumbents hold the world speed record for a bicycle and were banned from international racing in 1934. Another style, Pivoting-boom FWD (PBFWD), has the crankset connected to and moving with the front fork.
