OT: Post Covid Recumbent Bike Rec needed

[Duende]

Any advise would be great. My brother still has to use an air tank and his balance ain't so great.

We're hoping this will help with his recovery while letting him ride somewhat again.

Thanks in advance.

Probably a trike. The learning curve is much quicker than a 2 wheel recumbent.

My bad, I thought recumbent bikes were three wheel'd.

There is two and three. I was recommending three. Give Zach a call, I believe his small shop is only by appointment. Few know as much as he.

Awesome! Thx Ripvanrando!

Has he recovered enough to get out of one? That's the problem I have seen with some recovering people from various illnesses. Cat Trikes are popular around here. Large groups here meet several times a week for long rides on our trails. They are fun. A friend of mine just bought an E trike.

Good question. didn't think about that! He's definitely weak... we shall see, but that will be an immediate test. Good news is that he's cranking on his stationary bike (with air support of course).
