What if you are under 5 feet, really under it? Can you still use the bike effectively?

No, this is for adults as a mode of transportation. It is a folding bike for bus traveling. I would not recommend this for anyone under 5 ft.

I'm 5'3", I have It and use it and it works, no issues.. What's important is that your comfortable on your bike.

I'm 5'4" and set the seat at the number 4 position. Not sure how short you are, but the number 1 position would put the seat very close to the pedals. They sell this bike at Dick's Sporting goods which is where we tried it out.

I have a question - Im shorter than all of you at 4'9". I recently spent an evening putting together a reclining bike only to find my feet went nowhere near the pedals even on the lowest setting! Reluctant to buy another one.. Any ideas?

No I am only 5'4 and he lowest setting for the seat is to low . So it should be able to get to a good hight for you . Love the bike .

No I don't think so. I'm 5'8 and it's tight. Hubby is 5'11. He can ride too but he has shorter legs than me. It's a great bike, I just wish the seat went farther back.

I'm only about 5'3 and have no problems at all with this bike. The seat does adjust enough for you to be comfortable while you're using it. :-)

Depends on how long your legs and body are. I know someone who is 5' 10" and rides this bike. If you can get the seat up high enough for longer legs, and the reach doesn't feel to short for your body length. Always best to be able to try a bike, or know the size that fits you best, but sometimes we gamble a bit! I find that some bikes feel better than others, regardless of size.

I am about 5 feet and it works for me. You have to move the seat as close to the pedals as possible which makes getting to the tension knob a little inconvenient but its still fine.

I am 5'1" and I could not pedal comfortably on this bike with the seat in the lowest position. However, my husband had 2 inches removed from the seat frame, and now I am to pedal without any problem

I'm 5 3'. I use the bike with the seat on the lowest position. My knees still have some bend in them once "fully extended"

I'm 5' 6" and this bike is good for me. Also, I think you can adjust the seat higher or lower.

Absolutely yes. I am 5'3" tall and I keep the seat locked in the fourth position from the pedals. That means you could move it down at least 2.5 more inches (3 more positions) before you ran out of seat positions. My husband is 6' 2" so he moves the seat much further back toward the rear of the bicycle. I hope this helps.

This bike is for people 5'8'' or taller. You need to be 5'7'' at least to have your foot on the ground on tiptoe.

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.

Tripping over the feet is NOT a problem we have encountered. I guess theoretically it is possible, especially if you have the feet splayed as wide as possible. Normally the bike is held away from the central upright hence you are unlikely to trip over the feet because the bike is in the way. IF you are really worried perhaps move the bike instead of yourself!
