Can this handle a 6'2" 230lb rider? Can it be carried on a plane? Stowed on a plane w/out extra bag/box?

i wouldn't recommend it for someone that big. My husband is 5'11" and weights about 185, he has to extend the seat post all the way out and then worries about it not holding him. It does fold down well, but if you put it on a plane you would want to have it packaged in some way

I'm sure it could handle the weight, I've checked in the bike as luggage but bought a bag for it. HTH

I am a 6' 3", 180 lb. rider. I feel like it is just about an inch or two short for me, but I normally ride so that my toes just touch the ground. On this bike, I can put my whole foot on the ground when I stop. Some people are more comfortable when their whole foot touches the ground anyway. If I was riding this any farther than three to five miles, it might bother me a bit...particularly my knees due to having less leverage. However, it works fine for my commutes. As for carrying it on a plane, I do not know. I think it might just barely fit, but would be awkward. I would probably check it on. I have carried it onto buses, though, and had no problem with that. - Bob I am a 6' 3", 180 lb. rider.

I'm not familiar with older models, can't help you there. As for taking on a plane as an extra bag, it's fairly large and heavy, so I would say no.

Yes, my husband is 6' and 230lbs, and its a tight fit for him. But we love the set it is very nice, and folds into a little cube for the winter/inclement weather!

For sure man. You'll have room to spare to keep your stuff in there. I'm 6'2" 170lbs, and I fit in with my saddlebags, riding gear, and other random stuff.

I am assuming that by 7" you mean 7 feet (not inches "). It would not fit someone that is over, I would say, 6'2". There are "large" bag options on Amazon that might fit your needs better.

I do not know. I'm 6'2 200 lbs. I traded the bike not long after buying it. The bike well supported me and had plenty of room. I would assume it could handle 250, but I don't know. I will say if you are over weight this isn't the bike for you since the posture requires you to be slung over the handle bars, it's hard on your back and forearms to distribute the weight.

It's very light but you would need a case to put it in to carry it on the plane. It's about 38 inches long.

Not at all. I am not that tall myself. It has a handle on the top to carry it by. The backpack option might be too big for me but not to just carry.

Since I haven't tried taking it on an airplane I can't honestly answer that however I see no reason why it could not be stowed on an airplane. I definitely plan to take it with me wherever I fly. This chair has set me free! I LOVE it. Kat Man, if you have anymore questions regarding this chair, feel free to personally e-mail me...pianagirl1@gmail.com

I am 5'8" and I do not have all the way out for the seat. I put seat in last position and was not easy to touch the pedals. I would think it would work well for a 6'2" person.

I am 6 ft 200 lbs and it fits me moving the seat back as far as it goes and the seat up to get a full leg stroke. Before buying the Network 3.0 I was unsure the tires would handle my weight but do so with no problems.

Yes, very sturdy! I am 230lb and 6'5" and I have stood on it. Very structurally sound.

Not really. I believe that airline carry-ons should be no longer than 22" and this is 26" with a semi-hard bottom. I don't think this bag is designed to be a carryon.

Airlines differ, but since the smaller size for this bag shows as 26" long, I don't think so on any airline. The duffel has a semi rigid back, so its not squashable length-wise

Not very easily. You need about two feet of leg room and a foot and a half width and unfortunately, most planes don't have that much room. Plus, it doesn't fold up and would be bulky to carry in my opinion.

Yes. This bag is HUGE. My wife uses it and she is not tall enough to carry it by the handles without it dragging. She is 5' 6". Just FYI

I'm 5'3" and 120 lbs. and I can ride it. As long as you aren't over the 145 lbs recommended weight I'd say it would work really well. I will say it doesn't fit in a backpack when folded, but it does make it easier to carry.
