That is a very good question Mr. Phillips. I couldn't find the owner's manual when I was assembling the tricycle. Until, I had completely assembled the trike, and installed the seat back in December. You had me intrigued with your question. Read the manual from cover to cover to find out what the weight capacity is on the trike, but could not find it printed anywhere on the manual. What I did was call tech support this morning, and talked to a lady named Jennifer. She told me that the weight capacity is 250 pounds, and that 250 pounds is the tested weight limit at the factory. The phone number that I called is listed in the manual. The phone number is 1-800-626-2811, or at customer service@pacific-cycle.com. I hope the information I gave you helps your situation Mr. Phillips.

Maximum weight capacity is 300 lbs. I am small so that is the best answer I can give.

I don't know, but they bike itself is very heavy so I imagine it can take more than 200 pounds

I seem to remember the specification stated less than 220 pounds but it is a sturdy bike and the husband has ridden this bike with no damage and he is more than 220.

I don't know the exact weight, but it is really light, probably the lightest bike I've ever owned!

I don't know the maximum, but I weigh about 250 and it has been very sturdy for me.

Hi - We bought this bike for our daughter for Christmas this year - its great. It does not have coaster brakes, only the front and rear brakes on the handle bars. I'm not sure what the weight limit is, but I am a full grown man (approx. 215 lbs) and "test rode" the bike and encountered no performance issues.

Not sure what the max weight is, but it is a very sturdy full metal frame. It supports my 40lb 4 y/o son and 215lb husband during story time.

Not sure about the weight limit, but my 4 1/2 year old grandson at 53 pounds is still riding it with room to spare . These bikes are "adjustable", as you can move the seat and handle bars to accommodate the individual. My grandson is rough and tough and the bike is still in great shape. I still believe it was well worth the investment.

I don't have the "Schwinn" answer, but the person who rides it is 175 pounds. And insure that is not the upper limit to the bikes capacity.

I'm not sure about a maximum weight, but both my girlfriend and i have sat on it at the same time and we weigh a total of about 290 pounds. The bench is very solid.

It's about 30 lbs. However, please note that we had a problem with this bike. When we received the bike, it was assembled, however, as we started using, we determined that it was assembled haphazardly so we had to take it to a bike shop to have it assembled correctly This cost us an additional $70.
