Cruiser after Knee Replacements

Hi! I had my right knee replaced and the left will be done in November. Today I test drove a couple cruisers. I haven’t ridden a bike in 40 years because of a knee injury. Today I did! I tested an Electra Townie 7d and a Baja with the balloon tires. I loved the big tires as they felt more secure to me and I want to ride on the beach and on dirt roads on vacations. The $500 price tags sent my husband into cardiac arrest. But I tried to ride one of the cheap cruisers at Academy and I couldn’t. It was just too uncomfortable or just felt wrong. Any advice on a bike to try? I just want it for exercise, fun, and to keep these new knees moving. Thanks!
