Join The Movement

OrthoBike Hero lets you start rehab with confidence on day one.

Rehab in Confidence

OrthoBike will assure you from the very first minute of pedaling that your knee and life will be back to normal...that you can do this.

You won’t believe your knees are going around so soon after surgery—under your control without pain!

There is nothing like moving an operated joint without pain in the very beginning to ease you into rehab, help you overcome fear, and encourage consistent exercise.

The OrthoBike Hero
lets you rehab your knee without pain.

Rehab Without Fear

Eliminate the fear of moving your knee or hip post-surgery. OrthoBike HERO lets you cycle pain-free because its short and adjustable pedals limit the ROM of your hips and knees. And you control your movement and pain.

Your fear of the pain of moving that bandaged, swollen, operated knee or hip—a time bomb you don’t want to budge!—will disappear when you start pedaling the shortest OrthoBike pedals.

You’ll experience profound relief watching your knees go all the way around without pain as you actively pedal. FEAR GOES AWAY.

Orthobike Hero helps you increase your chances of recovery and function in knees and hips.

Effective Prehab To Prepare For Hip or Knee Surgery

Strengthening the muscles around your hips and knees before surgery improves rehabilitation and helps you regain functional movement afterwards.

You can get effective prehab exercise because the OrthoBike HERO adjustable pedals and seat allow you to move without pain at your limited ROM.

The Hero gives you feedback which encourages you to be consistent with your prehab exercise program—under your complete control. You have greater confidence going into surgery that you will do fine.

OrthoBike Hero lets you start recovering sooner.

Start Sooner to Recover Faster

The short and adjustable pedals of OrthoBike HERO allow you to start cycling therapy earlier in rehab—you can start pedaling as soon as 48 hours after surgery with the shortest pedals and properly adjusted seat.

OrthoBike’s incremental and systematic active cycling therapy coupled with the PT’s hands will prepare you to get back on your fitness, mountain, or road bike with great confidence, sooner and better than you can imagine.

OrthoBike Hero can help patients avoid surgery in many cases.

Avoid Surgery When Possible

You can strengthen and stabilize your hips and knees with OrthoBike's flexion/extension, strengthening, and gait speed exercise programs, even at your limited ROM and under your control.

OrthoBike Hero gives you the opportunity to exercise without pain and can help you try to postpone or even avoid the operating room, anesthesia, and painful recovery.

Sandy's OrthoBike Story

Trusted by Patients and Professionals Alike

Discover how OrthoBike HERO™ is transforming recovery journeys—one success story at a time.

"When I personally went through rehab, it was the OrthoBike that made a significant difference. The adjustability of the pedals and seat allowed me to work at my specific range of motion, incrementally increasing flexion without triggering pain.Out of all the things I did in my rehab, the bike was the most helpful."
Don, TKA | Pain-Averse
"The OrthoBike let me increase my flexion little by little. I started at pedal 1 and the seat at 11 (for 60°) and finished today with the pedal all the way out at 5 and the seat at 4 (about 110°). That’s a lot of progress one step at a time, and I am very happy about it."
Marisol, TKA | 4 Procedures | Arthrofibrosis
"The OrthoBike was able to extend my leg and get the flexibility back through the adjustment of the pedals and the seat location. It was primarily, in my mind, through the use of the bike that I regained the normal use of my leg."
Pete, TKA | Arthrofibrosis
"I’ve had 5 surgeries on this knee; it hurts like hell all the time. But when I ride the OrthoBike, the pain goes away, and I walk out of here pain-free. I now believe the OrthoBike can get me the miracle of improving my knee, finally, and eliminating or at least reducing the pain."
Bill, TKA | Multiple Procedures

OrthoBike: The Advantage

Experience the 4th Dimension of Therapy

With OrthoBike’s adjustable pedals, you’re not just pedaling a bike-you’re entering the 4th Dimension of Cycling Therapy. This unique feature allows you to adjust both the pedals and seat, creating a personalized, therapy roadmap and pain-free motion at any stage and ROM. You get therapy metrics like your maximum knee flexion as well as riding data. Exercise and rehabilitate on your terms with controlled, gradual improvement like no other bike can offer. We call it incremental, systematic, and progressive.

Prehab & Rehab for Total Joint Repair and Replacements

If you’re preparing for, hoping to avoid, or recovering from knee or hip repair or replacement, your knee or hip hurts and has restricted range of motion. OrthoBike HERO™ gives you the therapeutic and emotional benefits of pain-free cycling therapy now, today, regardless of your ROM. The OrthoBike incremental therapy roadmap identifies and helps you reach your goals. It’s that unmatched combination of adjustable seat and pedals, right? You can’t warm up or exercise on a conventional recumbent stationary bike with its long, fixed-length pedal cranks, without pain, until you have at least 105 deg of knee flexion; you can’t get from point A to point B with a conventional bike.

Reduce Stiffness From Excess Scar Tissue & Contracture

OrthoBike’s adjustable pedals and seat and a customized therapy roadmap have been the key to helping people with painful, arthrofibrotic knees and contracture regain their ROM, strength, gait speed, and hope, and eliminate pain. Incremental and systematic exercise available only with OrthoBike slowly reduces arthrofibrosis and lengthens tendons over time with repeated loading in the end range of motion. Reaching milestones of longer pedals and closer seat positions proves progress and brightens hope to get one’s life back. Traditional recumbent stationary bikes with long, fixed-length pedal cranks can’t play in this game.

Senior-Friendly Exercise

Strengthen and loosen aging, stiff joints with gentle, controlled movement at your choice of pedal length. Limit the range of motion of your hips and knees by shortening the pedals so you can pedal without pain, and without overusing and stressing your leg and knee muscles and tendons. OrthoBike HERO™ is perfect for maintaining mobility as you age by giving you a way to exercise without pain in your comfort zone ROM. Because it was designed for rehab and isn’t a gym bike, it is easy for seniors to mount and dismount. An internet search identifies many conventional fitness bikes supposedly designed for seniors but they are exactly the same bikes offered to everybody else.

Home-Based Physical Therapy

Home-based physical therapy provides convenience, psychological comfort, and improved consistency in home rehabilitation exercise programs. Multiple studies* confirm that home-based physical therapy can be as effective as clinic-based therapy for certain conditions. There are 168 hours in a week, and only 2-3 spent at the clinic. The convenience and psychological comfort of being at home can improve patient compliance, reduce costs, and increase the quantity and consistency of rehabilitation exercise.

Relieve Arthritis Pain

OrthoBike HERO™ is an excellent addition to the standard PT-prescribed exercises, diet, and everything else you are doing to relieve arthritis pain in knees and hips. Pedal without the discomfort you’ve come to expect from traditional fitness bikes. Short pedals produce short arc movements which do not stress the arthritic joint like a standard fitness bike’s pedals, and allow building of strength in the muscles and ligaments around the joint because you can actually pedal and get exercise without pain.

Easy Mount/Dismount, Spacious Step-Through

Studies show that recumbent and vertical cycling are similar but the recumbent position may be better following ACL reconstruction because of less load on the knee.* Vertical bikes are not used in rehab or at home if the rider has a risk of falling, such as when balance and strength are inadequate or the rider cannot stretch to mount or dismount from a vertical bike’s seat. The Hero’s recumbent mode and wide step-through space are designed to make it easy for anybody to mount and dismount.

Reduce Scar Tissue Formation

OrthoBike recumbent cycling movement at low- to mid-ROM, low loading/resistance, and slow speed likely replicates the continuous passive motion machine in pumping fluids away from the joint and remodeling collagen, over time, starting early after surgery. These functions are vital for preventing excess scar tissue formation or arthrofibrosis. In addition, pedaling OrthoBike adds active-assisted rotational movement progressing to active and resisted motion, many more revolutions of the knee during rehab, and engagement by the patient in the rehab process, which improves exercise self-efficacy.*

Customized Knee Flexion Roadmap

A customized systematic therapy plan is available for any user, allowing them to track and improve knee flexion and extension through calculated adjustments of seat and pedal lengths. You adjust the seat and pedals in a simple pattern from the beginning to the end of your rehab. We give you this pattern in your customized roadmap. Then you know exactly where you are, what the next step is, and where you are going. It gives you milestones, celebrations, and WOWs! along the path to recovery. Everybody loves seeing their progress and understanding their rehab!
