Stationary Exercise Bikes

Question: Homemade stationary exercise bike?

(Posted by: pocahontas on 2008-11-22 15:04:06)

I'm about to have another knee surgery and I know that using exercise bikes are very good for rebuilding the knee, but I'm low on dough. I was wondering if I could somehow take apart an old bike I have and use it? Would you recommend this? If so, what do I do to make it? K then. Somebody asked the question a few ?'s back so I already have my answer, but I leave my question up so I can give someone a best answer.

Pre-made bike trainers are so inexpensive that its unlikely you could construct anything useful for less. I have used one similar to the one below for several years, and its proved sturdy and reliable.
