Height Limitations My wife is 5ft. 1in. Will the seat to pedal distance be OK for her?

One of my children is 4'11" and the pedal distance is too long for her even at the closest setting. She must adjust the distance with a cushion.

I am 5' 1" and can't reach the pedals. I am looking for a nice cool back cushion to place on it to get me closer.

Yeah I am 5 ft 1 inch too and thinking of getting it, will it be ok for me? My husband is 6 ft will it be a hassle adjusting each time we want to use it?

You should be fine. I'm 5'4" and had to keep my seat pretty low to get a proper fit. You'll love this bike!

I'm 6'2" and had to adjust the seat to the 3rd longest length, when my legs are at the farthest point away while pedaling they're almost straight. I'd be willing to bet at 6'6" you'd be good to go

My wife is 5'1 and found it comfortable. You can easily adjust it for your height.

My wife is 5'2 and its OK for her, I bought the same frame in a men's bike and I'm 5'8 so I think she'd be OK

My girl fried is 5' 5' and it fits her very well. Between a seat adjustment and handle bar adjustment, you should be fine. It's a great bike for her.

I purchased the bike for my daughter who is 53" tall. She rides with the seat on the lowest possible position, and she is able to comfortably reach the pedals at this height. I'm afraid that a 48" tall child won't be able to reach the pedals quite yet.

I am about 5 feet and it works for me. You have to move the seat as close to the pedals as possible which makes getting to the tension knob a little inconvenient but its still 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.

My wife, who is 5'3", got this bike, and she had to raise the seat a couple of inches. She loves it. It's a comfortable, upright bike. The only downside is that it doesn't have much room to attach accessories.

I bought bike for my 5'6" wife, she has not used it yet. I am 5'8" and rode it a little. Seemed fine.

My wife uses the bike. She is 5'4" and loves it. But I really don't know for someone shorter than her. However, I do think it might be possible to "block" the pedals for someone shorter.

My wife is 5'3", and she is comfortable riding with the seat raised several inches...so I would think it should work well for you. We purchased Schwinn Miramars a year ago, and love them.

My wife is 5'2" and is rehabbing fine on this bike. She is very happy with it.

That is my wife's height and she is able to use this bike just fine. Really like this bike!

I'm 5'5 and my husband had to raise the seat for me. It is a regular size bike if you fit well on one of them than you should be alright with this one.

Absolutely yes. I am 5'3" tall and I keep the seat locked in the fourth position from the pedals. That means you could move it down at least 2.5 more inches (3 more positions) before you ran out of seat positions. My husband is 6' 2" so he moves the seat much further back toward the rear of the bicycle. I hope this helps.
