I've been trying to find answers here, will a person with 33 inch hip width fit the seat? only 220lb but with wider sets of hip

All I know is that a 64" hip very comfortably fits in the seat with at least 2-3" left.

Get a tape measure and measure "hip bone" area and then look at their chart. I made the mistake the first time and ordered too small. I have a 35" waist and believe I ordered the medium large. They don't write the sizes on the garments. Order bigger too if you plan on wearing them over your underwear which I do. I believe I ordered the medium large for the 35" waist. Yours will be either the medium large or a large. Hope this helps you Robert.

The seat is height adjustable, so I don't think your height will be an issue. I believe it is rated for up to 300lbs. Initially, the seat my be uncomfortable but, DON'T go out and get a new/padded one. It may take a few months of consistent riding, but it WILL break in and be very comfortable.

If someone sets it up properly for you, it will not hurt your back. I have a bad hip and cannot take much pressure on it and the bike is good. The handle bars come towards the rider. Good luck. It is a lovely bike. Have you considered toe smaller version of the bike? It may work better. My shorter friend has it, she loves it.

I weigh 135 and have no problems fitting in this chair, as I stated in another review the back is a bit low for upper body support but otherwise, it's a lovely chair. Make sure when you get it to tighten the legs with an L bracket every few months though.

Hope it works out for you. Glad I could help answer your question although I might have misled you. I measured on the back side of the chair which I probably shouldn't have. If I take a tape measure, hold it on the actual seat and then measure to the top of the back rest it is actually 28". I am 5'11" and if fits me real well. Hope this clears things up.

I'm 130 pounds and sit on mine every day. My husband is 220 pounds and they accommodate him just fine too.

I'm the same size as James, I have the shoulder straps at the top setting, but I'm long wasted, so it could work for you. I have a 32" waste and have almost all the slack taken out of the waste strap, so that shouldn't be a problem. I don't know my hip to shoulder measurement, but my pants inseam is 32" and I'm 5' 11" if that helps.

The hips straps worked fine for me. On 34" waist I adjusted them to almost their smallest setting so you should be ok at 38". Plenty of padding and it stayed buckled just fine. You may already know how to adjust the waist belt properly but if not then read some posts.

Hey Badzilla.... I'm not American, but I am 6'7" and 300lbs. It's the only seat I've found that is comfortable for casual riding.... I don't go any further than around 4 miles though.

I'm close to 200 pounds and there's no problem using this chair. If you are close to 300 pounds it may not work well for you.

Hi, Chritina. Thank you for attention to Yvette. We have updated the size guide, shown in the product photo list(just at the top right side of the product detail page). Now size S to 2XL are available. They are fitting for hip from 21.5" to 33.5", that is equal to 55-110 cm. This 6004 sports hipster has power net front panel, providing good support while you working out.

It is not extra wide. Both of us are average size and we fit with just a bit of space but I do not think it would work for larger folks. Hope this helps.

In reading other responses, if you put a 42" cushion on there, it will probably buckle. The measured EXACTLY and gave no room for give. I will be looking for a 40-41.5" cushion if I feel I need one.

It probably depends on your bone frame...I weigh 118 with a medium bone frame and it fits me very snug...so will probably be fine for you also...I wear a size 4 petite jeans/slacks if knowing that helps any and wear mine under my jeans to work alot...have lost 1 inch around my butt and 3 inches around my waist by doing so...good luck!!

Yes the seat is wide for bigger people, However mine has already bent and is useless. Only used twice.
