How much of your body hangs off? I am about 5'10 at 190lbs. I want a crazy ride, but I do not want half my body hanging off.

It is very large, much larger than it appears. We have teenage boys about your size. They ride two at a time on it. I would guess maybe below the knee? Possibly mid thigh depending upon far you are up on the front. They sometimes ride on their knees as well. They get pretty beat up on this one. It is their favorite!

I would say that your legs will probably hang off. I bend my knees and nothing touches, but I am 5'7. You can pull yourself up higher and have your body more on your arms. You can also do the ride on your knees instead with your body upright while still hanging on.

I am a very big guy. 6'4'' and well over 3000LBS. The front suspension feels squishy to me. I have not been able to ride it a lot so no opinion yet.

I am about 5ft 4in and it is a comfortable ride for me though it is on the larger size. It might be okay as long as you feel comfortable not being able to easily put your feet on the ground!

Probably too late, but thought I'd chime in. I am 6'4" and 270. I just bought this and I fit fine. Both the handle bars and the seat adjust for height as well as forward/backward, so there are numerous combinations for fit and ride style. And it's heavier than you think! Even at my size, it's a very stable ride. The only movement is in the handle bars ... Four screws secure the handle bar to the frame, but because the forward/backward adjustment just has a single rod to adjust and tighten, there is slight play when you grip the bar.

It goes about half way down my back and is just as long as shown in the picture. http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/204/c/9/moar_of_harley_by_moonwolf7854-d6euiuz.jpg here is a picture of me in it

No! I am in the midst of moving and just sold my bed so I am currently using this as a bed... I am 5'6 and my feet hang off. That is largely due to the fact that your head cannot rest where the back of the chair is b/c part of the edge of the chair digs into your ribs. Sorry to disappoint!!

You bet! Or anyone, especially heavier, or older individuals, or those ride long distances 15-20-30 miles. I can sit down and 'cruise' as long as my legs will last, now. Before, my butt was what determined the length of my ride. Now, its my stamina and muscle reserve, which is as it ought to be. Its like having a couch on your bike...

I weigh 260. I can jump hard if I am a foot from the end, but if I jump at the end I do it gently. The one time I didn't I could hear a little crackling. No damage, but clearly I was taking it to the limit.

I was worried about that too. I am very happy to say yes. I'm 5'2', 117 lbs. I have no problem at all. I hope this helps. Good luck.

We'll I'm 190lbs and have no problem. I have read from other people weighing 250 and more have been fine as we'll. it seems sturdy to me as I roll around my motorcycle and car.

I'm very careful when I sit in my swing. i try not to move too much but to just enjoy "hanging" there. I don't feel very stable, so it is not just you.

I GOT THIS FOR MY 13 YR OLD WHO IS 5 FOOT 8 INCHES. He is too tall for it, his knees are to his chest, but still manages to ride it. It looked like sooo much fun, so I wanted to try. I am 5 foot 0 inches and 115 pounds. The bike was the PERFECT size for me!! It will be just right for you! It's soo much fun, he had to pull me off!

Im about 5'11 - 6 foot and have a 31- 32 inseam and I ride the 58cm frame. This bike is almost perfect for me but I would get a 57 if I could because the 58 seems a bit tall at times but after I got used to it, its perfect for me. I say if your legs are somewhat long/average, I would go up but I've also road a 54.5 that didn't seem too small (it was an expensive Fuji and Ive read that they are sized large) but then again, the seat was really high. If you go down, with the 54, you'll save weight but it might feel a tad too small and your seat might be a little higher than you like...It depends what you want. Personally, I would go up. How much do you weigh?

I'm 5'4", had surgery to remove a tumor near my sit bone a few years ago, and recently rode 16 miles on it, no problem. I've been happy with it!

I'm 6'2" and 205 lbs.....it seems that the rig is tightened down pretty far to fit me. My guess would be "no" if I were to try to answer your question off of the top of my head.

Hello. I'm also 5 feet tall and wondering if anyone ever answered your question. I want to buy an elliptical and they all seem to cater to tall people! I had to have the pedals of last one I owned removed and moved forward, putting wood blocks underneath to also raise me up. Otherwise I the only way I could reach the handles was to walk in a leaning forward position. ANYONE out there with advice for us shrimps?
