This bike is perfect for shorter (or as I like to call us, heightly challenged) people. I would not recommend it for tall people, but she would have a very easy time with it.

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

I am only 5' tall and I could actually cycle comfortably on 1 setting above the lowest. I did lower it down to lowest setting and feels even better. Overall, it is hard to find a bike that fits a short person so I am extremely happy this one works for me.I just measured my inseam and it is 28" but remember shoes might add another inch or two if your inseam is lower.

Hi.I went for the 20 in because I am 6ft tall inside leg 32 ins and the bike works well for me!If you buy the bike try and get the carry bag as part of the deal as they are not worth the $99 price tag!! brgds Clive

I'm 5'8" with a 29" inseam and the bike was too tall. It has a 22" seat tube height.

I bought this bike for my girlfriend. She's 5'7" with long thin arms and legs. It fits her with plenty of adjustment left. I'm 6'1" and had no difficulties riding it while I was adjusting the brakes and derailers.

This will be perfect for you. My wife is pretty much the same height and she loves this bike.

My wife is 5'3 and I adjusted the handle bars and the seat to fit to her requirements. I am 6'0; however, I have a long torso with short inseam and we both enjoy the ride, except for the uphill. I can easily say that a person with a 5'8 height should be able to make proper adjustments for this bike to reach the desired results. WARNING: This bike will give you a work-out! I should have purchased the 3 or higher speed bike, with no speed adjustment the hills are painful. If you don't mind looking like "The Incredible Hulk" from the waist down...well maybe that's a little exaggerated but this bike does require some downward effort to move.

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?

24" should be fine, it's your inseam length that matters more than anything and the saddle height is adjustable and doesn't slip that I've seen. At 180 lbs, mines held up fine doing jumps and what-not, that certainly put more than 260 lbs of force on it, they're pretty sturdy.

I am 5' 10" and the bike fits fine.There are adjustments in the bike to accommodate your height, but I would be more concerned with weight - the built in shocks are not adjustable and it might be a problem if you are over (in my estimation) 220 lbs.

my girl friend is 5'4" and fits her perfect but im no bike expert. Plus the seat and the handlebars are adjustable too. Hope this helps!

My daughter is 5'8" & I bought this bike for her and it works perfectly. She has a 33 inch inseam. Not sure if that helps or not!

Weight doesn't really have an input on this but what you want to do is measure your inseam. From your groin to the bottom of your foot. Take that number and multiply it by 0.65. That number will reveal your frame size. If the exact size isn't there then round off down to the nearest size. That's what had to do. You can always adjust the seat higher. As for model, the more precious the metal, the lighter & lighter is always good but its gets pricey.

The seat and handlebars will adjust a long way forward for a shorter person, without measuring the bike I would say a 3-4 foot tall person would have no problems riding the bike. It's a great bike! Strong,steady,well built, my 15 year old granddaughter loves it. She can ride a regular like but she can take this anywhere. Best money I ever spent on a riding item.

I'm 5' 7" and I find this bike to be a very comfortable ride. I have the seat, which I replaced in the lowest position. While sitting on the seat, legs straight, feet parallel to the floor, I almost touch. The top of the peddle is 7"from the floor while in the lowest position. Their is a reasonable chance you will fit. I will tell you unsolicited, I am extremely happy with this bike. I ride it 20 miles a day in warm weather and I still have the original tires on it. I hope I've answered your question. I will be glad to answer more questions if you have. Best of luck.Thom

Edit: my apologies, it does list the frame size for this bike. It is 18" which, unless you are 6'4" and have an especially short inseam this is going to be a small bike for you (and me, unfortunately). I'm 6'3" with a 34" inch inseam which I believe is pretty much run of the mill - which puts me needing a bike with a frame somewhere between 19" and 20". Though that is talking about optimal comfort which might not be your goal.
