I wish we had this when Corey was younger. With his seizures we were uncomfortable putting him behind us. Anyone know of one that fits an 8 year old weighing 50lbs?

For children up to 40lbs., Height adjustable foot cups
Better communication between adult and child
Improved balance for rider due to child's central position on bicycle
More comfortable, enjoyable riding experience for child

An award-winning design that allows children to enjoy and share in the cycling experience, surrounded by your protective pair of arms. Your child is not behind you uninterested and distanced by the limited view. The child’s position also keeps the center of gravity where it belongs – on the bicycle frame, not behind the rider. This all adds up to a more comfortable ride for the cyclist AND the passenger.

Exercise bikes don't take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. The exercise bike is one of the few that allows you to watch television or read a magazine while you work out.

The term recumbent literally means "lying down." Exercising in a recumbent or reclining position allows the user to have full ergonomic back support, without causing strain on the arms, neck and shoulders, all of which can be common effects of using an upright bicycle.
