Can a taller rider ride comfortably? 5'10"?

I have seen tall persons riding this type of bike. They are smiling, and appear comfortable. It looks a bit funny! My advice is that the tall rider should try it out the bike in the store. If it is a gift, than ask the salesman's recommendation.

I do not think it is too comfortable for a 5'10" person. I have one and it's comfortable for me. I am 5'5"

I'm 5'5" and love it. Not sure about adjustments, etc... sorry can't be more help, tho I don't see a big problem.

I find the bike comfortable for me (5'10") and the seat/handle adjustments would help. However, if both are using the same unit, the big difference in your stated sizes may make adjustments a bit of a pain. BJB

That should be fine. I'm 5'7" and ride it. My son is about 5' tall and doesn't have any issues.

5' might be the safe answer, but I'm 6'2" and I've drove it (not comfortably). My buddy is 5'4" and he can actually get both feet under the dash and drive it, I think you might even be 5'6" and still be able to drive it. My 10 year old is 5' and she drives it with plenty of room (she has a little less in the rear then most of us too).

My wife is 5'4" and rides it with the seat all the way down so I think it will be too tall for 4'10"

I'm 6'3, depending on your leg length/riding preference it might be close. I think I have the seat up 7/10.

I just purchased this bike and I'm just under 5' 5" and have the seat set at MAX in order to get full range of motion, without hyperextending my knees. I can't imagine anyone taller getting full ROM.

Hi Isabella, I own this bike and am a little over 5' 8" (longs legs) and the seat is all the way down and it's still a little tall. I don't think you'd be comfortable.

I am 5' 10" and I think I am at the maximum height limit for the tall handlebar. Anyone taller would have to stoop a little bit.

I ride comfortably at 6'5" with the seat adjusted to about 1" below max. height. My only problem was adjusting the handlebars high enough to match. They are at max. height. You should have no problems adjusting to your height. It is a great bike for the price.

I am 5'5" and have the seat as far down as it will go. I have short legs so it's hard to say whether someone 5'2" could use it comfortably. My knees don't straighten out all the way if that's any help to answering your question. It may also be possible to put small blocks on the pedals if that would help. I love the bike and use it 20 minutes a day at about 10mph. Have put 123 miles on it already.

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 .

I don't think it's that tall. I'm 5'4" and have had to raise the seat to feel comfortable riding. My only problem is getting my leg over the seat to start riding but I'm having trouble with my hip. The bike is very comfortable with shocks in the front.

Absolutely. I'm 5'10", but an embarrassing 210 pounds. I use it on a fairly low setting. There's plenty of room to raise the seat and extend the bars for your husband. The bike itself is very well built. It's enormously sturdy and provides a smooth ride. It's only drawback is the seat. It's awful. He'll want to go to his local bike shop to get something more comfortable. The only other customization I made was to install an old pair of clipless pedals. Bottom line - go for it! He won't be disappointed.

In my opinion, yes. I am 5'10" and I have the seat adjusted about half-way. If you have the seat all the way forward it should accommodate a 5' person.

Yes. I am 5"4 and is just perfect for me, anything taller would probably be uncomfortable to manage the handle bars.

I am a 5'5 and this bike is pretty comfortable, although the seat is set almost all the way down..but that doesn't mean is not gonna be good for you, everybody's comfortable level is different...I think the best is to find one in store and see how it feels!
