Two ingredients to the rescue:
One<\/strong>,
Denmark is the country of cargo bikes, and one of its most iconic is the good old Black Ironhorse (Sorte Jernhest)<\/a><\/strong>. The big plus of this cargo bike: the front does not move, with the back wheel doing the steering.
This means you can rest your bad leg on the cargo box. Just add a little footrest, or a belt to hold your leg, and add a pedal strap on the good side.
Then ride the bike with one leg. It is hard work, but doable – and great training for the working leg.
As the bad leg slowly recovers and regains at least some mobility, enter
Two<\/strong>,
the genius work of Highpath Engineering<\/strong>, the Pulse Swing Crank<\/strong>.<\/a>
It does two things: it shortens the effective crank length, but even more importantly, reduces the circle your foot will move in, while keeping the lowest point of the movement. The effect: you can cycle even if your leg only has moderate mobility. The soft moves with limited power make for excellent mobility training<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
