I have this bike, but I think it may be the version before this one, because it doesn't have the holes to adjust the seat. Am I missing something?

I have the one that have holes for adjusting the seats,I have no idea that they have without holes.

I would think that is a defect because we definitely had a need to adjust the seat to our Granddaughter's height.

Yes you probably are missing the holes. You may be able to move the seat to a new height and drill your own holes. He seat should have a series of holes in a line so it can be easily adjusted.

Check your bikes there seems to be two different bikes, that or similar, on Amazon.com. the one I purchased has handlebars that are closer. And did not cost as much as the other one.

I have found the seat to be non-adjustable and any adjustments made come through adjusting the handles.

I have the same problem. Which one, sold on Amazon. is preferred? I have been told that bike seats are for moving bikes and cannot be fitted to stationary bikes.

I looked at all kinds of bicycle seats and they all had the same problem. It's that extension that goes between your legs that's the problem. It needs a seat like a tractor. I was doing physical therapy and none of the machines had bicycle-like seats. I'm thinking about taking the seat off of a junk tractor I've got and modifying it.

Since the seat post is a standard size, you should be able to replace the seat with one that better suits your needs. I would take the seat off and take it with you to a bicycle store to make sure the seat posts are compatible in size and pick a seat that fits your needs.

Bike height is adjustable so should be perfect. Have not found a seat to fit it but best deal is find a comfortable to fit your bottom and see if it has enough stretch to fit over hard seat. That worked wonderful for me!! 3" foam did not work for me. Still felted the hard seat underneath. Bought a seat and stretch over seat it came with. Good luck.

Try sewing it together with waxed thread. It won't be adjustable but it won't mar the seat. Also the waxed thread is super strong.

I don't recall all the details, just remember it has no shaft or connection point to a shaft, and I and my husband were at a complete loss as to how to attach it to the bike. I would advise you to choose a different seat.

Hi, Madeline. Hope it's not too late to help. I got the Active 20 and the seat adjustment is the same as a higher-end Schwinn that my friend has. They both adjust forward and backward only, but the seats slide at a downward, somewhat shallow angle. So there's no true 'vertical' adjustment--but a slight vertical change when you slide it backwards and forwards. It may provide little consolation, but the nature of recumbent bicycles means that your height in relation to the ground becomes somewhat irrelevant, as the most important rule to follow is the distance between your hips and the pedals. As long as you're not hyper-extending your knees (legs entirely outstretched when your foot is on the pedal farthest away from you), bicycle manufacturers think that the location of the pedals isn't important, as long as they're not above your heart. I'm sorry if I couldn't help you. One more thing, it's also bad to have your legs so cramped that your pedaling brings your knees close to your chest.

Mine changed a bit to be honest, but we have a mountain bike. We have friends that bought the seat for their beach cruiser and they have no position change. Even with a bit of "knee bumping" i would still recommend this seat for sure. The kids LOVE it! and it is worth it.

A gift? The bike is not as comfortable as my previous one and no matter how tight you turn down the bolt that holds the length between the back and front portion, it comes loose and the two sections spread apart requiring readjusting. Also, it does not have a solid feel. Although I have thrown away the box it came in, I remember the box being quit large.

I don't have a problem with it but I do remember having to tighten it pretty tight. That said, it is not a comfy seat to begin with. I would recommend going to a bike and get a good one. That's what I am doing.

The seat is very adjustible The toe clips being removed means you will have to get new platform pedals The handle bars are not very adjustible.

yes, but buy another one if you can. the bike itself is great, but the seat has caused me much grief; it is too wide and i have had to saw it down on 2 occasions because it was rubbing against my child's legs and chafing his skin. also, i had to add extra cushioning because the seat is wooden. there are other models almost identical that have a better designed seat.

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 -

This was a gift to my grandson for his new baby, also a gift to my niece. They both love it and the seat only adjust in two position. I'm not sure how that was done because it's been a while. I'll try to find out and let you know.
