Not recommended for the knee.

One of the reasons I recommended the two Sun bikes is that they are easier to learn. The pedals are behind the front wheel.
Thanks! I'll take a look at those Sun bikes. Just from looking at images of those bikes, I can see that the handlebars wouldn't be an issue, so that's great.
