My Project

Some students have a ton of energy to burn, and if it is not channeled productively, it can come out in negative behaviors.

This stationary, recumbent desk bike will allow students with energy to burn to pedal safely and quietly while still having the ability to work and focus on the lesson.

The supportive backrest, quiet pedals, book/materials holder, and other features of this bike make it a great choice for a flexible seating option, and unlike many cheaper models, it is sturdy, will fit students of all shapes and sizes (as middle schoolers are), and will last for years to come.
