with the stokers seat all the way down, how short a person can ride on the back? my 5 yr old daughter is tall for her age .

I find it rather hard to answer without knowing how tall she actually is. It depends on leg length also. I thing 5 years old might be a bit small. I would have to say maybe 4 and a half feet tall with longer legs might be able to ride. I am sorry I could not be more specific. Hope this helps.

I suppose it would depend on how long her legs were. I'm 5'1" and it works for me. The thing I would be most concerned about is the fact that with it being a tandem, if in a wreck, the weight of the person in front could really injure the person in the back. Of course, that is a personal decision.

I do not see a problem as long as you don't expect her to peddle.My wife often puts her feet on the center bar and rests while I peddle for both of us.

Yeah, my daughter and my sister both ride the one(s) I bought. My sister is 5'3" and my daughter is 4'9". My daughter is able to ride it, but it's not optimal. I would say a couple inches over my daughter and you're good.

Nope. My daughter who is about 46" tall has no issues. Just may need to raise or lower the seat and or handlebars depending on your child.

We bought this bike for our daughter who turned 7 in July and she is 47 inches tall. I think the bike is a little too tall for her. Maybe by next summer.

In not sure how tall she would have to be but, the seat goes down really low. I was nervous abut it at first because my daughter is so small but it worked out great.

My daughter is five and it is a very nice height for her. She is not a short girl.

I am 5'3 and I rode on it with my child. I was comfortable even with her in front of me.

That's tough to answer. I had my girlfriends 10 year old riding it with a little trouble and he's nowhere near 5 feet tall. I imagine it would work for those around 4 10 to 6 8 but that's a complete guess. I'm 5 11 and have the seat set roughly in the middle.

I'm 6'2". Handle height is fine for me. As for the child, he should be good. Have a daughter about the same size, and still riding like a champ in the thing! Hope this helps you.

Hello, I am 5'4" and it is a stretch to sit down,...not advisable if you are taller also it would be harder to get-UP from a short seat,... the seat is very small kind of like a pancake,...search for cane-seat thingie for some one of height,..when you sit on these seat-cains the cane part goes in front ..for safety, good luck hunting,...Wendy.PEACE

I think it would be great. Our 5 yo is shorter than average, and it's a bit big for her. She manages to ride it, but I think it will serve her to age 7 at least

My wife is 5' 4" tall and based on where I have the seat adjusted for her, I would say someone who's as short as 4' 6" could comfortably ride with the seat adjusted down to the lowest position. If your not counting on them to provide much pedal power they could probably be even shorter.

I personally think you should be fine for at least a little while. We bought it last spring for our 4 year old daughter who is tall for her age and she rides it around like a crazy woman. Her older sister, who was 6 at that time, and who is also tall for her age (95th percentile) was able to ride it without problems with the seat at the middle position, although it was more comfortable for her when I moved the seat to the very back position. Our then 6 year old (who just turned 7 this month) learned to ride a two-wheeler this past summer however, so she really has no interest in her little sister's big wheel. Have you looked into coaster bikes? I personally think you should be fine for at least a little while.

I have a 4 year old that is currently riding it. She is tall for her age but its perfect for her.

I'm not sure what the actual height measurement is, but my daughter is 35" tall and can't ride it, yet. Her toes hover about an inch above the ground. If she has her "big" boots on, she can touch, but not really well enough to push off or anything. I'd not expect anyone under 37-38" to be able to ride it well.

I'm 6' and was about 215lb when I got mine, and it was never an issue. I've been really happy with it. My daughter was 4 last year and used an off the shelf toy scooter, but I'm thinking of getting her her own Razor so we can start a gang and terrorize the neighborhood ;)

5' might be the safe answer, but I'm 6'2" and I've drove it (not comfortably). My buddy is 5'4" and he can actually get both feet under the dash and drive it, I think you might even be 5'6" and still be able to drive it. My 10 year old is 5' and she drives it with plenty of room (she has a little less in the rear then most of us too).
