| Best Bike After Bypass Surgery? I have just had open heart surgery and have been riding a traditional road bike with drop down bars. As this puts a lot of stress on your chest would I be better off to go to a recumbent? Or will I heal-up in the long run to continue with what I have? -- Thanks in advance... Bob |

Ask your cardiologist about the bikes. Bill "seriously, good luck" S. |
