Will it fit on a Specialized Ruby woman's road bike? Also I'm 5'2" with a 48 cm bike frame &amp; curious if it's comfortable for the vertically challenged

I am 5' 6" and using them on a size 19in. comfort touring bike. They should be fine on your road bike, and they are adjustable for, and aft. So, I think you should be all set.

Actually it will work with a women's style bike that doesn't have the center bar very easily. My wife has one and the "J" hook slides down to securely hold the bike frame with no special adjustments or other equipment needed. I just make sure my wife's bike is clamped in first with the bottom "J" hook and then adjust for mine with the top one.

You'll be fine with this bike. My wife is 5' so I had to modify the seat post some but at 5'-4" the bike will fit.

No, the frame will be large for you. I am 5'1 and was unable to use the bike comfortably.

It's a tall bike! I'm 5'6" and feel that is on the tall side. Would recommend a smaller bike.

I have a female bike, not a cruiser, a mountain bike, and mine fits fine. You do have to angle it just right and it sits on the rack at an angle, but it has never been a problem for me and I feel like my bike rides securely. I have even used it going down the interstate and never felt like it wasn't secure.

The rack can fit a road bike. It really depends on your frame. Generally the taller the frame, the better it fits. Otherwise you need to make an adapter like I did showing in the pictures to fix it with the seat tube.

I bought this for my girlfriend who is 5'8" tall. She has it on her mountain bike (26" tires if I recall)and doesn't seem to have a problem with it, and she is over 200lbs. From what I have seen,..you just tilt the bike so you can get a leg over and then stand up with it. She's also never been the most graceful girl, but has yet to dump the bike or what she might be carrying on it doing it this way.

I'm 5'1" Kathy. I put a pillow behind my back for a tighter fit & it works perfect. I think I can actually adjust it ... just haven't had the time. I'll say this...it's a great deal and way more substantial bike than I expected. I'm really happy I took the plunge.

No, it should be just right. I'm 5'7" and I'm at the very top end (actually the bike is a bit too small for me). My mom rode it, and she's 5'3" and said that it was very comfortable for her so it's probably just the right size.

I'm 5'10" and Its almost too small for me. I also worked on a bike shop for many years. I think it would fit very once ajusted.

I have a Schwinn Tourist (bought from Target). Based on the picture alone, they look to be the same bike. From the middle of the bottom bracket to the top of the seat tube is 20" on mine. May daughter is 5' 4" and she fits this bike well. I'm 5'7" and can adjust the seat high enough for it to fit me.

Hello in lovely Destin! ... my wife is 5'3" and the bike fits great ... the seat is fully adjustable and should fit you just fine.

Thanks for the inquiry! That bike has a 20.5" top tube length so it should be ideal for riders between the heights of 5'3-5'10. Have a great day!

It woudl probably fit you better than it does me and I'm 5'11". Having to keep my seat high up for my legs, I'm leaning over more than I wanted (only because I have back issues, thats all). I think 5'6" would be ideal for this bike. I could easily lower my seat a good 4 inches.

I took my road bike (61 cm) and it fit with no problems. You have to remove the seat post and handlebars and pedals, but there was plenty of room for the frame itself.

At 5' 2" you will have trouble reaching the ground from the seat wth any bike with 26" wheels. I am 6' and if I adjust the seat to allow for full leg extension when pedaling (the distance between the seat and the pedal at the bottom of its rotation should be 103% of you inseam) I too have trouble reaching the ground. On a bike with a women's frame or a men's frame you shouldn't have trouble standing over the bar when off the seat. If you do the frame size (the length of the tube me from the crankset to the seat) is too large for you. My daughter is 5' 4" and the recent bike we got for her is a 17" frameless and fits her well.
