Is the handlebar adjustable? I see that it has the stem to assume raise &amp; higher the bar but how about front &amp; back? Thank you

My wife has a similar model with the same stem handlebar setup. It is adjustable, maybe a couple of inches total up and down. You adjust it with an Allen wrench.

The handlebar is not adjustable, but my daughter who is 5'4" tall and son in law who is 6'1" both say it fits them just fine. My daughter uses it almost every day, hardly has to keep a finger on it to guide. She and baby of 8 months love it!

Handlebar can only be adjusted up to a certain point. Yes, a suspension seat post can be added at a leter time as all bikes are already boxed with to the current specifications. Thanks

yes. The handlebar is adjustable both horizontally and height, but it will not rotate on axis in the stem like a normal bar and stem.

It comes with a stem mount. I use mine a lot it is very secure on the handlebars.

There is a quick-release on the handlebar stem. It can be raised but not lowered from the original factory assembly

No! The front legs are adjustable but the bar in the back can't be lowered.

Yes, It raised my handlebars about 1-1/2 inches but because it is much shorter than my original stem it also brought my handlebars 2-1/2 inches closer to me so I am not stretched out as much as before and much more comfortable!!!

Sherry, no the handle bars do not adjust towards the seat. They only adjust up or down. I'm 5"2 and love this bike. It works well for me and I use it 4-5 times a week for almost 1 year now.

There are two kinds of front fork/handlebar systems. (1) The old style pre-2000 or so, where you loosened up a long bolt on top, and then, could slide the bars up and down about 3 inches. It was an expanding bolt inside the front fork. (2) The newer style where there is a handlebar mount that clamps onto the outside of a fixed length front fork. These do not have that adjustment. The Montague Paratrooper I bought has this newer type, so no adjustment - to my knowledge. The only way to raise the handlebars is to get a different "clamp" that holds the handlebars to the front fork, that has some lift in it. There are even some that are adjustable. This would be a second purchase after the bicycle.

Yes the seat is adjustable, but I drilled two holes to make it a little lower than normal - The handlebars wil adjust forward and backward, this seems to work well --Happy overall with the product -

I can't answer your question directly, but I just checked my wife's and the handlebars don't appear adjustable to increase the height. She's only 5'3'' now. But she's had hers for several months now. I can tell you the strorage/transfer bag is not in a convenient place to use, and the unit is difficult to maneuver if you carry an item in one hand, and steer with the other. Hope this helps your decision.

I gained almost 2 inches of handlebar height over my stock stem, and it brought the bars back approximately an inch. So it sounds like this would about do it for you. Also, this was slightly lighter than my stock stem.

No, the handlebars do not adjust, only the seat adjusts. Since this isn't a spinning bike, or along those lines, you really don't need them to. A good deal of the time your hands won't be on them, or will be on the part that runs left to right in front of your body -- the part that runs perpendicular to the LED mounting post. This bike is a awesome, especially for the price. It is absolutely quiet and runs perfectly smoothly. I would definitely recommend it. I like it so much that I have been checking into purchasing an elliptical by this company as well. Hope this helps!

Can your stem rise more than 3"? If yes, then yes, if no then No...it mounts below the stem so the more clearance you can get below the handlebars for your child's legs, the better.

Got this for my mother,and yes the height is adjustable. The handle height is adjustable as well, as is the wheel brake lever. For her it had to be lowered, no problem.

The handlebar does adjust. Its very easy. I am 5'2" and I am on #2 of 4. So, Im not quite sure, but I think it would be ok. You should get one as life would be so much more difficult without it. I use it all the time so I can take off the boot and still keep my foot protected. You should try to get an opinion from someone of similar height to see if this is the right model, though. Good luck!
