I have a 36 inch inseam and am older with two bad knees.....so I need the low step through, but also a taller frame......would one of these work ?

It would work well for stepping in and out of the bike without having to lift your leg no more than 6 inches off the ground. Also, with this bike you will be seating in an upright seating position. the frame size of 18" size would be good for someone over 5'4"

My toilet is two piece, elongated and comfort high. This works fine with it. As I recovered from a knee replacement this toilet frame was a godsend, as was having a higher toilet. Best purchase I made!

Your inseam would likely be more relevant than height. There is a link for "Bike sizing and fit" at: http://www.schwinnbikes.com/usa/bikes/hybrid/network-3-0#/resources

works fine for me when I do. I think it depends on how tall you are as the metal frame could be an issue if you crunch your knees up and they hit the frame. I'm 5'6"

It might be best to go for the smaller one. Although, the only harm the taller one will do is raise your feet more; it is a matter of your personal comfort.

I don't think you can, or would, push it past the stops. I have shorter legs, about a 30" to 31" inseam, and I can hit the stops. I also have extremely powerful legs and could press far more than this machine can accommodate. So my point is, keep in mind that this is a good machine, but think lighter weight, more reps, and don't expect it to be like a serious high-end gym machine. It is a great home piece.

I am only 5'1 and the other girls in our office are about the same. You will be just fine... plenty of bend in my knee. I know what you mean about legs touching the floor when your short.

The Walkstool legs do not lock at different heights - there are just extended and retracted. I suggest you get one of the taller stools. I'm 5'5" and the shortest version was fine for me.

I am on the shorter side, 5'4", however this assist DOES work if you bend your knees also. The point is to lift your body weight and legs bent or not doesn't change that. We started using a chair for assisted pull ups in our doorway, but this perfect pull up is so much better. Better range and control and you can see your improvements (or not!).

You will be pushing it. The main thing I see is that there units sit low making it hard for even a 5' 10" person to lower themselves into. It will take very good knees for someone of your height to lower themself into and get back up out of.

It actually might not work for you because the stepping combination, along with the treadle action does have an alternating upward step motion. This may actually be more irritating for your back, since it alternates stepping up. I am a therapist, but check with either your PT or your MD who did your surgery.

Follow the specs on the website. The size of the leg above and below the knee may need consideration.

I don't think it would work as is... It currently has two height adjustments but both are a little tall for someone 5'3". If you are handy with a drill and a tape measure, you could easily mount the squat hooks lower on the upright. The squat hooks are mounted with a heavy duty pin that goes through the hook and upright. Very simple fix...

I have 32" inseam and find I have the bike seat about 2" below its maximum height, so if your height is in your legs... I find the seat post clamp is not quite capable of keeping the post from rotating while I pedal- odd problem to have with a Schwinn bike seat,

I am 5' 7+" have a 29" inseam and I can straddle the crossbar near the saddle without discomfort. Perhaps 1" - 2" of crotch clearance wearing regular sneakers. With the saddle in the lowest position I have a fair bit of ease and in no way stretch for the pedals.

These shorts have a 9.5" inseam which fit me just above the knee when standing as in the picture representation. I live in a subtropical climate and this shorter leg length makes them a little cooler to wear and a little more maneuverable during outdoor activities. If you are well over 6' and not OK with this above the knee fit and length, or desire a longer more covered leg area, I know 5.11 make a 11" inseam in this TacLite short which may work out better for you. Hope this helps!

I am 5' 6" and have short legs (sitting I look much taller - and have plenty of room at the crotch level. Due to the frame bar lower than moral, you should be all right.
