My mom is just 5 feet, will she be comfortable using this bike? Please help I'd love to get her a bike to excercise.

I am 5' 6" and I am quite comfortable on this bike - it's adjustable if she needs to be closer to the pedals. Because it's a recumbent style, she won't be straining her arms trying to reach handlebars. I think it all depends on how short her legs are - I'm an average size so I don't have any problems. Good luck!

My wife is about 5'7" and there is plenty of room to adjust the seat for shorter people. It should work out ok unless her legs are really short.

No, I am 5'4" and really have to stretch to make the pedals go. If she has long legs it might work for her, but it doesn't for me. It was a waste of money.

I really like this bike but if you are under 5'3" it may be difficult to adjust it for your size. I'm 5'3" and my husband adjusted the bike as much as possible (drilled new hole), and he said that was as much of an adjustment that could be made. I still need to use a pillow behind my back to reach the pedals and be comfortable.

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 purchased this bike for my wife who is 5'1 (and a half, she says she wants credit for that half inch). Bike fits her great. The seat has quite a bit of adjustability, so you shouldn't have a problem.

I am 5' 3" and I was able to use this walker and there were even lower adjustments available. Good luck to your Mom!

This is a fine bike for short people. It is one of the best exercise bikes I have ever ridden. I am 5"1'--and a friend of mine who is a bit shorter recently bought this model and tells me it works for her too.

Yes, I'm not quite 5'2", and it fits me fine. There are plenty of adjustments you can make. I also think the bike is pretty quiet. Overall, I'm really pleased with it and would definitely recommend.

I bought bike for my 5'6" wife, she has not used it yet. I am 5'8" and rode it a little. Seemed fine.

No, it should be just right. I'm 5'7" and I'm at the very top end (actually the bike is a bit too small for me). My mom rode it, and she's 5'3" and said that it was very comfortable for her so it's probably just the right size.

My girl fried is 5' 5' and it fits her very well. Between a seat adjustment and handle bar adjustment, you should be fine. It's a great bike for her.

Yes it would be good for 5'4". My daughters are about 5'1" and had to have the seat lowered all the way down. However if you do decide to buy this bike you most likely will be needing to take it to the bike shop for missing parts and adjustments. Both of my daughters bikes were missing crank washers so they couldn't be ridden until we had them fixed. They love them now though! Just keep that in mind.

I am 5 ft 1 inch tall, I wonder if this would be a little bit heavy for her to propel? I have the seat on the lowest setting, and I am thinking maybe she could ride this ok, is there a childs sized one out there? Maybe you could put some sort of wooden blocks on the pedals in case her legs are a little too short. Do you want me to measure anything for you? Its sitting here in my garage and would be happy to measure it for you. I really like the bike.Cheers, Cheryl

My user is about 5'4" which required adjusting the handlebars up 4-5" or so. She's very happy with it. It's quite sturdy & well made, but not a lightweight. We'll probably buy another. I hope this helps.

Bought this bike for my 4 yr old who is on the lower range of the height scale, and her legs were too short. She's about 4.5 now, grown a few inches and can reach the pedals now, but it is still a bit awkward. If your daughter is on par with a 5 year old's height, it may work but my guess is that she will still be riding at a very slow pace to begin.

I`m only 5'9 and wife 5'2 We don`t have any problems with bike although I did upgrade seats for more comfortable ride. You may have to get longer seat post but other than that you shouldn`t have any problems. Do play with the gears to get used to them as it is dual drive, and communicate changes with each other.

I am 5'2 and I do not have any troubles riding this bike. I think it is different for everyone, but I feel comfortable on it. I have pretty short legs too and I absolutely love this bike.

Its a really nice bike, but I think it will be too small for you. It fits me comfortably and I am 5'9"
