Looking at this bike for my twins who are currently 38" tall. Will this be too big? I'm okay if it's a tiny bit big for Christmas, but not huge.

I think it will be perfect. My son got this bike at age 3 1/2 last Christmas and he was about that size. He is now 40" and is riding it without the training wheels and it is perfect for him.

Hi, Bought these for my twin grandsons this summer and sorry to say, they are now 42" tall and still need the training wheels because they cannot reach the ground when on the seat. They learned to ride on balance bikes but these bikes are too big. If I had it to do over I would go with the 12". Hope this helps.

It will not be too small. I am 5' 6 1/2" and this bike is honestly almost too big for me. I have the seat as far down as possible. I could probably raise the seat 4-6 inches if I needed to. The only problem I could see for your giftee is if her knees might hit the water bottle holder. I believe that's moveable (and removeable) so I wouldn't worry too much. I love mine! I feel so cute every time I ride it!

Depending on her height, I would go for a 12" (John Deere also makes a 12" version of this bike). We are getting one for our 2 yo daughter who is very tiny but, she rides her brother's (3.5 yo) 12" bike better than our tricycles. Remember that the seat adjusts...our son still has another year or more left in his 12". Buying "up size" may be OK for coats but, getting a bike that's too big is just a recipe for frustration, possible injury, and maybe a trip back to the store or post office to return a too big bike.

Should be no problem. I'm 6 foot and there's plenty of room to grow....a good bike for the money

Hello, this bike is great. It is pretty quiet and a good overall bargain for the price. You should have no problem with the size of the bike. My wife is 5'4" and she is happy with it.

No, the concept of the bike would be grate yet the size is a bit too small. I bought it for my 2yr old and weve already hd to upgrade. These are also sold st Sams Club and some wal-marts so if you can go see it, you should

Hi therei bougth this bike last year when my son was 4 yo, and the truth is i think i better buy a bigger bike instead this one. It was just perfect for my 4 yo but you know how fast the kids grow so he just ride it for a couple months, and now i need to buy a bigger. So, the answer for your q: this bike is too little for a 5 yo. I hope this help you. Have a good day and a great shopping expirience.

Hey Christine. How tall? I'd say if he's over 5'0 then you'd want something bigger to allow some growing room. Otherwise this will be a good bike.

My cousin's 16 year-old son and his friends who are 6ft plus, have a great time on this bike! I think your son would enjoy it as well.

My husband's is a schwinn hybrid 26" (but that's all I know) and he uses it regularly with both our very tall 6 yr old and our tall 4 yr old. I can't really think if a bike style it wouldn't work well with! The kids LOVE IT! Oh and people ask about it everywhere we go :)

Yes absolutely! I just purchased this bike for my three year old this past Christmas. She just turned three in January and it is the perfect fit and will easily work until she moves up to a regular two wheel bike. FYI my daughter is also very tall. The overall quality of the bike and the workmanship is well worth the price. It is very sturdy, steers well and has awesome tires! You won't find another bike like this!!

Joseph, this bike is probably too big. My boys are 11 and both a little over 5ft. When they are on the seat in its lowest position they can't put a foot flat on the ground while bike is upright.

I think there is probably no issue with someone this size, I believe everything is adjustable. We bought one for my fatherinlaw. It was a good straight forward bike. He liked and so did we.

The twin who is using this bike turned four in July and it is perfect for him now. He is a slight bit bigger than his contemporaries and I am hoping he gets another year out of it. You could talk with bike store about sizing if you want more exacting sizing.

No, not at all. I am 5 foot tall and it's a great bike! Not too large at all. I really enjoy the bike, you won't be sorry if you get it.

I bought 12in before my son was 4 years old and he is a little tall. I recommend this bike size before 4 years. I believe he should be good to go for a couple years.
