hiro Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 Anyone ride or learn to ride after having knee replacement surgery? I just want to know if it's a bad idea to encourage my wife to take a spin around a parking lot. She's been a pillion back when she worked at a bike shop, but never a rider. She can drive a manual car though, so that should help. The bike is small and light. Just not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 So I'm assuming left knee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad324 Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Well damn when you mentioned driving manual car I figured it was left one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the left leg is more important for riding. Could always get linked brakes or just not use the rear brake, but not shirting takes the fun out of it.

Tonik Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 This is a question for her doctor. But I know a few people that have had one, or both replaced. They are as good as new. Some of them ski which is hard on knees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
