SportsArt has built a reputation for engineering fitness and rehab equipment that holds up under the demands of daily institutional use, and the C521M is no exception. The combination of adjustable cranks, bi-directional pedaling, and a reclining seat means therapists have real tools to customize each session - not just a one-size-fits-all machine. The ultra-low resistance range is a particularly important feature for working with deconditioned or post-surgical patients who need a gentle on-ramp back to activity. Whether you are outfitting a hospital rehab wing, a physical therapy clinic, or a senior wellness center, the C521M delivers the performance and reliability your patients and staff depend on every day.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eView Product Specs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eUnit Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e183 lb \/ 83 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDimensions (L x W x H)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e66.5 x 26.4 x 50 in \/ 169 x 67 x 127 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCycle Crank Arm\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 - 7.2 in \/ 12.7 - 18.2 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eResistance\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 levels with 0.1 increments\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower Requirement\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15A, 120V AC, grounded\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMax User Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e450 lbs \/ 205 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRead Outs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWorkout Level, Calories, Time, RPM, Distance, METS, WATTS, Speed, Heart Rate, Target Heart Rates\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWorkout Programs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHill, Custom Interval, Manual\/Track, Random, Cardio\/Weight Loss HRC, Custom HR, Iso Kinetic, Iso Strength, 4 User IDs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eConsole\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTri-Color LED\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAssembly Required\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfessional delivery and setup recommended; unit ships via freight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat makes the C521M different from a standard recumbent bike?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eIs the C521M suitable for elderly or very deconditioned patients?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eYes, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat power supply does the C521M require?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eHow does bi-directional pedaling help with rehabilitation?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eBi-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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eHow is this unit delivered and does it require assembly?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-content\"\u003eDue to its size and weight (183 lbs), the C521M typically ships via freight on a pallet.
