I am short (5'1"). Does this bike work for short people?

I think it would work fine........it is adjustable for your leg length the seat can be moved closer for shorter legs

Yes, I am 4'11" and have no problem using it comfortably. I don't even have it on the shorteset setting.

Yes it does, in fact if you were 6 foot I would be concerned that it is not long enough.

I am 5' 10" and the bike fits fine.There are adjustments in the bike to accommodate your height, but I would be more concerned with weight - the built in shocks are not adjustable and it might be a problem if you are over (in my estimation) 220 lbs.

I'm 5'5" and it works well for me, but the best way to make sure it will work for you is if you can find an RC-30 that is set up in a store so that you can try it. That's what I did before buying. After trying out several different exercise bikes, some of which I found unstable/uncomfortable or where my knees hit the handlebar as I pedaled, I decided on the RC-30.

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

That is not a problem. I am 5'3" and there is still plenty of room to shorten the bike. It would probably accomodate someone who is shy of 5'.

Eunice Cho - I bought this model for my mother who is 5' 3", and for her the seat setting is at slot 4, meaning there are 3 closer settings available for even shorter people, so my best guess is yes. To be positive, go online and find a local store that has this or similar Schwinn model and have them demonstrate it for you.

I would think so. I am short (5'4") and I have it on the lowest setting. It goes up quite a bit. I would say it is a very uncomfortable bike, however.

I'm NTSC sure. I'm 5'5" and it's a bit tall for me but works pretty well. It might be the reverse for you - a bit short but doable. Hope this helps! I love the bike!

Yes I think so. I'm 5'9" and the bike feels small for me. Almost everything on it is adjustable.

I'm 5'7" and it fits fine. But I wouldn't recommend this bike. It's very cheaply made.

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.

I am unable to answer this but I am 5'4" and I feel the bike is big and heavy - not in a bad way it provides the robustness that I was looking for. My husband who is 5'11" also rides this bike and it suits him as well.

Hello, this bike is great. It is pretty quiet and a good overall bargain for the price. You should have no problem with the size of the bike. My wife is 5'4" and she is happy with it.

I am about 5'0" and I just got my bike yesterday. One of my concerns was whether or not it would work for somebody my height. it does! And I am not in the closest position, so I would guess you could be about 4"9" and it would still work.It does not go up and down, just backwards and forwards, but it is low to the ground, so getting on it is easy.

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!

No this bike is not too big for you. I am 5'2" and it is not big at all for me. I am sure it would be fine for you.

Yes, I got this bike for my daughter who is 5'-2" and it's a good fit for her.
