Recumbent Exercise Bicycles

Any health hazards involved with the use of recumbent exercise bikes?

I like the recumbent bike because it doesn't put pressure on my lower back. I'm thinking of exercizing on it 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week. Are there any health risks associated with the recumbent (such as overuse injuries)? Thanks.

1. Like with every machines, there are overuse risks. But don't push yourself past the point of breathlessness, fatigue, pain, or dizziness and you should be perfectly fine.
