About Us
EasyPed was founded by Norm Nyburg in
2003 as way to introduce “Better Biking” to the cycling public.
Norm’s dream of a “better way” to cycle actually began
in 1972. While
recovering from a traffic accident Norm found he could balance a set
of crutches across the handlebars of an old ten-speed bicycle to get
exercise. Along with
the great exercise Norm discovered a wonderful sense of
freedom. After being
confined to a hospital bed, wheelchair and finally crutches Norm
realized how much he missed it.
Norm rode everywhere, miles and miles
of freedom and exercise.
Before long he realized the drawbacks of regular “upright”
two wheeled cycling.
The design had built in design flaws that caused
discomfort, such as:
- numbness in the hands and wrist
- pain in the tailbone
- discomfort and pain in the neck and
shoulders (leading to whiplash like symptoms)
- flying over the handlebars
- way too much wind
resistance
Norm went looking for a “better way” to bike and found
recumbents. Recumbents
have none of the design flaws that can cause the problems associated
with regular uprights.
To find out more about recumbents visit http://www.ihpva.org/FAQ/ on the Internet.
EasyPed has completely researched the recumbent
market. There are many different models being manufactured around
the world. Models
costing anywhere from $350 for a low-end homebuilt kit to over
$5,000 for a hand/foot pedalled combination trike model.
