That foldable fairing is an excellent thing to have if you like to cycle through the winter, as I do, in the UK. It is a major reason why I'm planning on buying a Kettwiesel in 2020.
Hase says they expect the rain poncho to be back in stock in October 2021. Likely a corona-caused disruption. Since corona came into existence, bicycle trails have become more busy. However, imagine riding in light-to-medium rain. and totally owning the bicycle trails! BTW: The Hase rain fairing is actually way more aerodynamic than the typically too-far-forward hard plastic "aero" fairings on tadpole recumbents! A tadpole canopy above the rider's head actually looks more like a canopy from a horse drawn carriage. Hase' installed rain fairing and rain poncho look very much like a streamlined velomobile! A tadpole....., not so much! LOL! Also, in addition to rain protection, cold wind and hot sun blockage from a Hase fairing and poncho are possible! Waiting for my Hase rain poncho. Already own two Hase rain fairings. Made my own front rain fairing mount for both the fairing AND a luggage rack in FRONT of me. Too neat! My luggage rack is accessible for food and drink while I am riding. Have made more than one design of luggage container/rack. I can even brew a cup of percolated coffee on a backpacking alcohol stove. This, while both stationary and still seated. (Handicapped here.) Potential for forward storage of cycling supplies, (EVEN a combination luggage carrier and pet carrier) on Hase' delta planform trikes should be looked into by Hase! My luggage carrier swivels sideways for more space when getting on/off trike. HUGE endless marketing potential for the delta planform!!! Forward luggage can either fit under rain fairing or not, depending on priorities. There is more room there than many might think. The stock rain fairing rear mounts can raise/lower about 7-inches after preferred height is decided. One can keep one's head in the airstream. Or, one can make the airstream go entirely over one's head! One can even change the above airflow while riding, I actually treasure the ability to ride in the rain! WHY?! Not because of chancing a ride with a rain potential. It is because rain is both cooler and also in the shade. This with scenery, wildlife and nature still always there! OH.., and also because the trailside restaurants are always still there when rain is present! Gary J. Seckel AKA: "Jason Stillwater" in recumbent universe
Would love a longer demo, like starting out having it stowed away, the get it set up, go on your ride & stow it away again when you get there, like you would on a commute to work...

This looks very well thought out; but I dont see it as an option on your website yet; or is it included with the lastest version of the fairing?
Is there anything like this for a two wheeled recumbent?
