I had one repaired 2 years ago. I was off the bike and out of work for I think 3 or 4 weeks and then started on a trainer. Sorry but I don't really remember. I know I was in the hospital for only about 5 hours. The patient before me had too longer than the doctor expected. Then I didn't have to go to the bathroom which I had to do to get discharged. A guy that came in after me left before me.
