Exercise Elderly

Can anyone recommend a good exercise BICYCLE MACHINE FOR ELDERLY?
Hello everyone,
My grandfather is about 68 yrs old and he has a degenerative knee or some sort of condition where his legs are a getting weaker as the years go by. He can still walk okay but he’ll lose balance at times.
Question is, does anyone know of a good exercise Bicycle Machine that he can sit on to workout his legs?
Really important that the bike has a back support!
I would head to your local gym, chances are they have several types of bikes that he (or you) can try.
Sports equipment stores are a good place to look as well.
I can tell you from experience, buying a bike/treadmill/eliptical machine without testing it out yourself first will not work out well in most cases.

Sansone takes you through her gentle in-home walking program with a peppy (but not too chipper) spirit on a set that looks like a barely furnished living room.
