Would this be an ideal starter bike for a 6'6" 200 lbs guy like myself?

i think you may need a bigger bike frame, probably something around 62 cm. the 58cm frame may be too small, depending on the length of your legs. if you can find this bike in your size, go for it it though, i'm really happy with mine!

It might be just a bit small. I'm 5' 11'' 200lbs. Its just right for me, maybe a little tall, so like I say.. Maybe just a bit small for you.

I think so, I am 6'1 and weigh 215 lbs and it is fine for me. I have been riding it at home on the trainer and on the weekends outside and its perfect.

I am 6" - 215 lbs and the bike is plenty big for me. My wife it 5' 6" and she can ride it too.

Even though I am male and 6 foot 2, I have a few 26inch bicycles and all you have to do is adjust the seat post up. You can always get different handlebars for comfort, but this bike is fine as it is. Just to give you a different reference, my wife and also her daughter who are both at the lower end of the 5 foot range have used this bike. I had to lower the seat all the way down where the seat springs straddle the bike rack and it works for them just fine.

Absolutely. I'm 5'10", but an embarrassing 210 pounds. I use it on a fairly low setting. There's plenty of room to raise the seat and extend the bars for your husband. The bike itself is very well built. It's enormously sturdy and provides a smooth ride. It's only drawback is the seat. It's awful. He'll want to go to his local bike shop to get something more comfortable. The only other customization I made was to install an old pair of clipless pedals. Bottom line - go for it! He won't be disappointed.

Hi Leon,I think you'll enjoy this bike. I'm 6'2" and are very comfortable, plus the seat is adjustable. I hope this is helpful. Enjoy, Mark

Yes, it is a good bike. I bought it for my son who is over 300lbs and he is over 6'tall. It does work for him and he is happy with it.I hope this helps. It seemed to be as pictured.Thanks, Audrey

This style and actual bike would be a good choice. It should be manageable in terms of weight versus size.

Hello, this bike is great. It is pretty quiet and a good overall bargain for the price. You should have no problem with the size of the bike. My wife is 5'4" and she is happy with it.

this bike has a weight limit of 300lbs so your good there, and i am 6' and i find it to be an extremely comfortable bike so long as you assemble it to your body size and type. excellent bike, i recommend it.

Yes. I am 6ft 200 lbs and its a perfect fit. It's harder to find a bike that fits you at 6ft or taller. You need to focus on how high the seat goes to get a straight leg stroke, and the distance of the seat to the handlebars to fit the length of longer arms. If its too tight, you feel crowded/uncomfortable. This bike also has some fit adjustments too.

I am 6'2" and weigh 220lbs. The bike is just fine for me. You will not have any issues.

Five might be a little small but it is a perfect starter bike. The bike is light weight and is very easy to use. I would recommend the bike to other beginner riders.

Yes. My friend is 6'2", 58 years old, and he zipped around on it, loved it. The secret to tall people riding this type of bike is the adjustable seat that goes higher than most folding bikes. I had a Citizens bike but the seat did not go high enough making the knees to close to the handle bar, so I found the Schwinn an it is a good fit for tall folks too!

I'm 5'6" and I can ride it just fine. The seat and handle bars are adjustable as well. Just make sure you tighten them very well.

I have this bike and love it but I am 5'3'' and it is only an inch too high for me I think it may feel a little small if you are 6 ft. When I was looking up reviews for this bike prior to buying it many people said it was more appropriate for a woman than a man because it's not very large. Hope this helps. Good luck!
