===Tandem recumbents=== [[File:Barcroft Columbia.jpg|thumb|300px|This Barcroft Columbia is an example of how a tandem recumbent can be fitted within a compact layout for easy transport.]] Just as with upright [[bicycle]]s, recumbents are built and marketed with more than one seat, thus combining the advantages of recumbents with those of [[tandem bicycle]]s. In order to keep the [[Bicycle and motorcycle geometry#Wheelbase|wheelbase]] from being any longer than absolutely necessary, tandem recumbents often place the stoker's [[crankset]] under the captain's [[Bicycle seat|seat]]. A common configuration for two riders in the recumbent position is the [[sociable]] tandem, wherein the two riders ride side by side. There are also hybrid recumbent designs such as the Hase Pino Allround<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.recumbent-cycle.com/en/recumbent-bike/41-hase-pinoallround |title=Hase Pino Allround - Touring - Recumbent-cycle.com : Recumbent bike |access-date=8 November 2012 |archive-date=7 May 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150507051646/http://www.recumbent-cycle.com/en/recumbent-bike/41-hase-pinoallround |url-status=dead }}</ref> that utilize a recumbent stoker in the front, and an upright pilot in the rear.
