Check with your Doc. Usually you'll want a few days away from all activity to reduce swelling and let the healing get started. But when you're ready to begin rehabe, low-intensity cycling might be a good way to get low-impact exercise with low risk of re-injuring it.

Check with your Doc.

Yes, you use the quad to pedal the bike. If it is pulled it is best to let it recover fully before you cycle.
