Does this add any height to the ball. My 75cm ball is an inch or two too low.

Not really. I you're purpose is to use the ball at a desk, it will likely be too low and you will have to purchase a special structure that is specifically available for use with stability balls. Otherwise a 75cm is a big ball. How tall are you? Are you sure you've filled it completely?

I have never tried a ball that large, but the chair does accomodate a larger ball. The back rest is arched outward and a larger ball would fit better in the ring at the bottom. The ball it comes with tends to slowly sink down to the floor. My ball stands about 20" if measuring from ground to the top. There is about 6 more inches when the ball is on the chair from the ball to the bottom of the chair back. So if your ball is taller than 26" it probably wont fit. If less, then it probably will. Worst case, if your 75 doesnt fit you still have the one it comes with.

I'm 5'4 and I think the 75" is the perfect height to sit me at the right level for my desk at work... also why I purchased this ball. Any smaller and I'd be sitting too low to reach everything appropriately.

Justin, I have not measured. I have enough air in the ball to hold me up, so I can exercise. I had to fill twice. OK mine is also the same as yours. If you measure to the center of the ball it's 30". Does this help???

The base is low to the ground, but after the ball is fully aired up, and you sit on it, you will actually be taller than sitting on a regular office chair. I sit at a desk at a hospital clinic and the chair is awesome!

I don't think so, my sister in law is short not that short though and she likes it. I got mine and I'm short 5' 2", but I give it away because it hurt my hips. I have back problems and thought it might help, but made it worse. The ball inflates to what ever size you like as well as hardness, but it was not for me. Audrey

Jennifer, this was my response to someone else regarding the required height. He had a little more head room than you but it appears you have enough for the frame to fit. High arching shots might be a problem for you but honestly the kids don't tend to arch the ball much higher than the frame itself. "As it sits assembled, mine stands at 80" (6'-8") at it's highest point. The rim is 18" (1'-6) below that highest point. On really high arching shots you might hit your ceiling but in my opinion you'd be fine as most shots would never go that high.

No. You have to remove it from the shank and turn it over and re-insert to change the ball size or to adjust it up above the receiver.

Your ball is underinflated. If I remember correctly you should inflate until ball is 22 inches in diameter.At that size your problem will be solved.Reread instructions.

You could try to attach the bigger ball to it, but I think a bigger ball would work better with a taller pole.

I am 5'4" and when I sat on them at another office I felt they were too short for me. If you are shorter than me and have a normal height desk I wouldn't order the risers until I got the ball and tried it. They can be added easily. You can only put one set of risers on. The short people at my office can't sit on it because their feet dont sit on the floor easily with the risers on. If you have long legs you will need the risers. I love the ball chair for lower back pain.

Hi Hugh...no..the ball does not move...hope you are aware that the cane is to be at a certain height when you walk with it, when you add this Tripod, it will make the cane taller, you need to adjust this...it is difficult to push the Tripod on, what I did was, use a small amount of WD-4 to make it slide on, but any oil or grease will do, and then I pounded it down by banging is on cement floor to make it go up the cane...go online and ask the question "what is the correct height for canes and walkers" ...take care, and keep the strap around your wrist yours truly William

Not sure. I have the short one as pictured, and changed the stand to a plain black one of the same diameter. Suggest you learn the diameter of each, and if they are the same or close, the ball shown would likely work with the tall one. In the alternative, ask the manufacturer prior to purchasing the ball shown.

No it won't. The ball fits in the very end and there's not room for more than one ball at a time.

well, my ball is 75cm, and it does move about a bit on the stand. 45cm significantly smaller, so perhaps the fit will be more secure.

I have an 18 lb ball from a different brand & it is around 1- 1/2 times the size of my 8 lb Valeo ball. I'd say add an inch to the circumference for a couple more pounds added. I hope this helps. I do like the Valeo brand over all others. Very nice grip.

My ball is a "Go Fit" and I think it is 65 cm. When I looked at it, the six is a little worn (the paint), but it is either a 55 or 65 and I"m betting 65 cm is kind of the standard. Mine fits perfectly and now I can use my ball for computer work or paper work and not worry about falling off, which I did a lot before. You can change positions, bounce, etc. It is GREAT. Susan
