Would this bike be an apprpriate size for an 11-year -old girl 55" tall?

Yes. My ten year old 55" daughter rides comfortably with the seat at a low height. This may be the last bike she needs unless she grows more than another foot.
1038150
Yes. The bike has enough adjustment to allow her to fit now and grow. Bike is very light in weight and easy to ride and the light weight makes it pretty fast. Very nice bike for the money.

I bought this bike for my 10 year old last spring, and it works well for her. It is her first bike with gears. It is well built and sturdy without being too heavy. She is now 58" tall, but I think it would work for someone who is 55".
1038152
Yes. My daughter was about 55" when we purchased it for her and she didn't have any problems riding it. She's now 56" and it still fits great.

It would be a little big. She wouldn't be able to have her feet touch the ground while sitting.

Yes, no problem- but you're at the very upper end of heght range for this size / model its only a 17.5 / 44 cm frame, plus this is key, its just a 24" wheel model. It will look / feel like a toy bike under you. My girl is 4' 7" (55") and its a great fit for her. For your height, consider the 19" / 50cm-SM- Mens Denali, or the Womans Giordano, I think, is offered in the same 19" / 50cm size - either of these would have the larger 700c wheels - their height range would fit 4'10" - 5'6". Hope this helps....keep riding !

I'm 5'11" and the handle bars are not adjustable so I'm at a comfortable ride as is. You probably would not be comfortable with this bike.

Oh, yes, I'm sure he/she will be able to use. The bike is adjustable, and you can shorten it or make it longer. As I see on mine, - it can be adjusted to the very short, if needed. I'm 5'4 and I had extend mine to make it longer so that I could comfortably use it.

This bike as is won't fit her. I'm 5'5" and the bike feels a little too big for me.

I am also 5'11" and have no problem with the fit and operation of the bike. The height if the seat is adjustable.

I'm 5'7". The frame on this bike is approx. a 16" frame, which is perfect for me. It may be a bit too small for you. For your size I would suggest a bike with a larger frame, say a 19" or so. While the handle bars are adjustable, and the seat is adjustable, the frame would seem very small to you I think.

I am 5'5" and the bike is perfect for me. Even had to raise the seat, so I would say it would not be an issue with your height. However, the bike is longer and on the heavy side, it is one of the bigger bicycles I have purchased, so just be aware of that. But your height shouldn't be an issue, the seat can be adjusted to sit pretty low.

i'm 5"4 and i find the bike a little large for me. i have a niece that is 5"8 and she rode it just fine

I'm not really sure. I'm 5'3" and it fits me fine. I guess it would depend upon your daughter's height. Perhaps you could ask a local bike shop about sizing and then make a decision about this one. I can tell you that this is truly a wonderful bike and I have been very happy with my purchase.

This is a very hard question to answer because it would depend as to why the other bike is not completely comfortable for her and if all adjustments have been made that could be. I would suggest going to a bike shop and have her try a 24" to see if it would be to small.

Hi! I bought the bike for a 4 year-old who is approximately 38-40 inches tall. The bike was a little big for her, although she still is able to ride it. I would think that your daughter would definitely be able to ride it, however, she would not have much growing room. Hope that helps!

It would be too small for a 13 year old. You should take her to a "real" bike shop and have her fitted. You don't need to purchase from them, but at least you would have the right size. A bike needs to fit a person to have the most comfortable ride.

This bike is supposedly made for anyone under 5'4" so I think it would work fine. We bought this bike for our son who is only 4'8" tall and it works great for him. It does depend on how comfortable you are riding a bike - my daughter who is 5"2" prefers this size bike but I am 5'1" and like a bigger bike.

The bike is a small which is approx 15"-16". Our daughter is about 5'3" and this bike is the perfect size for her.

I believe it would be too small...my granddaughter is 6 yrs old and the bike is perfect for her...not sure of her height though I would guess she's at least 4 ft 5 inches
