Comments

An exercise bike is not intended for general fitness. 

Exercise bikes will only be supplied where the client is required:

  • to increase cardio-vascular fitness prior to surgery
  • to reduce weight prior to surgery 
  • as a rehabilitation aid following surgery (e.g. post knee surgery).
  • other (e.g. management of medical conditions  such as arthritis, respiratory and neurological conditions, cancer)

An initial 3 month trial is required to ensure that the exercise bike is suitable for ongoing supply and treatment.

For the initial 3 month trial complete the form Request for Trial Equipment - D9160.

If at the end of the 3 months trial, an ongoing need for the equipment is required.  Please see Stationary Exercise Bike AV01
