I have a mountain bike which I bought about 10 years ago and never use.

I had a car accident 4 years ago so I really can't bend over/forward like you do on the mountain bike or 10-speed because it hurts and is bad for my neck/upper back.

SO I was thinking of getting a Cruiser, which is a leisure bike, the old lady style with the handlebars that let you sit up more straight. Also I don't like to go too fast because I am scared to crash. I looked up on Internet and some styles have 6 or 7 speeds or shifting gears while others have none. I think I'd like one with a few shifting gears at least. Also they don't seem expensive at all.

SO ~ anyone have one or know anything about them?
