fes bike companies

Besides Restorative Therapies, does any other company still make the FES bikes? I've heard of Ergy's. Is that the Stimaster and are they still in business?

Nov. In the USA just RTI and Ergy's. I still dunno what happened with Electrologic, I know they were not in compliance with some FDA regs that could have been corrected but I guess their time had come. It seemed like things were moving along fairly well and ELA was selling a lot of bikes after the whole Christopher Reeve exercise therapy trials, I worked for them briefly, like I said I dunno what happened but it was a shame because they made a damm good FES bike. I have two of them and they still function perfectly even after 12 years of use (well, 7 years of use on my Galaxy).

Thanks a lot! The Ergy bike you have to transfer onto and takes up a lot of space. Booo.

Actually, MotoMed has a new FES attachment for their bike, we just got through demoing it at Project Walk.

The version pictured here is the old model, I believe. Ours looked different.
