Dear List members:
What do people do in order to maximize comfort and suspension security when
riding a bicycle at more than a casual pace?
One of our clients (trans femoral-prox. 2/3 of femur remaining-very good
tone) would like to return to cycling for cardio workout and is having
problems with suspension whenever he rides. He wears an ischial containment
socket, suction suspension with thermoflex insert and laminated frame.
Thank you,
Craig Smith B.Sc., C.P.(c)
