Would that have been a
Rans? They make recumbents and "crank-forward" designs. I haven't seen any with the autotrans you mentioned, but that could have been a customization.
I have a Rans Stratus LE recumbent. Very nice bike, but something you should know about recumbents is their length can be an issue. They won't fit on the bike racks on buses, nor are they allowed on MAX. But they sure are comfortable to ride!
