SportsArt C521M Recumbent Cycle


Description

The SportsArt C521M Recumbent Cycle is a professional-grade rehabilitation cardio machine engineered for clinical and therapy environments. Its semi-recumbent positioning delivers extreme comfort while accommodating a wide range of patient types, including those with knee and hip range-of-motion limitations. Bi-directional pedaling and adjustable crank arms open up rehabilitation variations that standard cycles simply cannot offer.

Designed to support both deconditioned and recovering users, the C521M features ultra-low startup resistance and a maximum user weight capacity of 450 lbs. The reclining seat back, pivoting armrests, and cool mesh seat with a lumbar pouch for heat and cold pack therapy make this cycle a standout choice for physical therapy facilities, hospitals, and rehabilitation centers demanding versatility and long-term durability.

FAQ

What makes the C521M different from a standard recumbent bike?

The C521M is purpose-built for rehabilitation, not just general fitness. It features bi-directional pedaling, individually adjustable crank arms for each side, ultra-low startup resistance, and a reclining seat with a lumbar therapy pouch - features you won't find on a standard recumbent bike. These tools allow physical therapists to customize sessions for patients recovering from surgery, injury, or illness.

Is the C521M suitable for elderly or very deconditioned patients?

Yes, absolutely. The C521M was designed with this population in mind. Its ultra-low startup resistance and 20 resistance levels with 0.1 increments allow therapists to begin with virtually no load and progress in very small steps. The semi-recumbent position also reduces stress on the lower back and joints, making it accessible for patients who cannot tolerate an upright or traditional recumbent cycle.

What power supply does the C521M require?

The C521M requires a standard 15A, 120V AC grounded outlet. This is a common outlet type in most commercial and clinical facilities in North America. Be sure to have a dedicated circuit available near the installation location.

How does bi-directional pedaling help with rehabilitation?

Bi-directional pedaling allows patients to pedal both forward and backward, which activates different muscle groups and movement patterns. This is especially valuable for patients working to restore full range of motion after knee or hip surgery, as backward pedaling can reduce joint stress while still promoting circulation and muscle activation.

How is this unit delivered and does it require assembly?

Due to its size and weight (183 lbs), the C521M typically ships via freight on a pallet. Professional delivery and setup are recommended. Please contact us at service@omahasportsandgames.com for specific delivery and installation arrangements for your facility.
